[Dart] Change server "batch processing" frequency?

[Blezek, Daniel J (GE, Research)]

Matt,

  Glad you figured this one out.  We've had numerous requests for faster processing times (usually when people first start using Dart).  I think I'll change the processing to every 30 seconds (for the next release).  No harm in doing this, as the scheduler won't queue the next job until the current one is finished.

Actually, the real answer is (after a bit of self education):

 From http://svn.na-mic.org:8000/svn/Dart/trunk/Dart.pdf rev 316 p23:

We changed the line below:

<Schedule>0 0/10 * * * ?</Schedule>

to

<Schedule>*/5 * * * * ?</Schedule>

to run every 5 seconds.  That's much better.  :)

"5.3.8 Task Configuration
<!-- Scheduled tasks. The Schedule tag is in cron format. -->
<Task>
<Type>dart.server.task.QueueManager</Type>
<Schedule>0 0/10 * * * ?</Schedule>
<Properties>
<Property name="MaxTasks">10</Property>
</Properties>
</Task>
Tasks configured in the Project.xml file are periodically scheduled. Tasks 
must implement the
dart.server.task.Task interface. In the above example, the 
dart.server.task.QueueManager is
scheduled to run every 10 minutes. The QueueManager class processes other 
Tasks that have been placed
24 Chapter 5. Server Setup
in the TaskQueue. The Properties tag specifies settings that are passed 
into the Task when it executes.
For QueueManager, the "MaxTasks" property indicates how many queued tasks 
will be processed at during
each execution, providing a "throttling" mechanism.
