Great writeup, I just implemented delayed job on my development machine last night but I can totally see why I would ditch it in a heartbeat.

Some things I would like to see in the article: * Logging a job * Error handling when a job screws up * Stopping all workers * Clearing the queue * Reading the queue * Queue Priority.

Time to do some more reading I guess.

Unfortunately RabbitMQ currently doesn't support message priority (which is in the AMQP spec).
