Function |
Avoids browser delays experienced by users when liking, commenting on, or answering a post that has already had a very large number of people respond to it (usually by liking). This is done by working out which other users should or should not get notified of your action, and sending those notifications, in this background job, instead of immediately doing so. |
|
|
Consequences of stopping |
Information on new likes, comments, and answers queues up, not getting converted into notifications, and therefore nobody receives notifications of these types of actions. If you have this job turned off for some time, then turn it back on, users get their entire backlog of overdue notifications at once. If you have turned this job off and you don't want to flood the system with all the accumulated like, comment, and answer notifications when the job is turned back on, and are willing to abandon these notifications, please contact NewsGator for guidance on how to clear out the queue for this. |
