[Koha-bugs] [Bug 32558] Allow background_jobs_worker.pl to process multiple jobs simultaneously up to a limit

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32558 --- Comment #40 from David Cook <dcook@prosentient.com.au> --- (In reply to Marcel de Rooy from comment #35)

Not sure (yet) but should the default not be zero? Just do not fork like we currently do?

The job needs to run in a forked process. The memory used by the job can be reclaimed when the child process ends - whereas the memory will never be reclaimed by the OS if the process doesn't fork. (The memory can be re-used if it's internally freed within Perl but can't be reclaimed by the OS.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
