Wouldn't separate timer in each preforked process could cause same job running in each process?

I guess that quite depends on usage (and that would be limited by what is "illegal").

Anyway, after some thinking about real-life examples, I would say making it illegal would work, but would not be really practical. Now I agree that we need sharing Smile

One ugly issue though... By adding jobs to the main process, you make it more vulnerable to crashing. Plus, perhaps crashing timer process should not delete timer queue.

So to sum it, storing the timer queue into file system suddenly starts to seem like quite a good option!
