<p dir="auto">I think a more realistic problem is that if the queue is never fully drained, the lowest-priority jobs might never be processed (e.g. if there's always at least <code class="notranslate">num_workers</code> "priority-0" jobs in the queue, "priority-1000" jobs will never be processed). But looking at the production graphs with <a class="user-mention notranslate" data-hovercard-type="user" data-hovercard-url="/users/tomhughes/hovercard" data-octo-click="hovercard-link-click" data-octo-dimensions="link_type:self" href="https://github.com/tomhughes">@tomhughes</a> the queues are drained completely on a regular basis, so this is not (currently) a real concern.</p>
