Recurring Jobs overlapping

Hello!
First of all many thanks for a great product!
Could I ask what happens to a recurring job if it catches up for execution if one from a day earlier hasnt ran yet?
What I mean I enqueue 1000 jobs each to repeat daily but the whole lot take 2 days to complete. Does a job only get requeued (to run again on cron) only after it ran?

Hello,

I have almost the same issue. I want to check every 5 minutes if files are uploaded on an ftp server, and when files are there a new backgroundjob is created. The issue is that when the service hasn’t run for a while, eg. in development, I have multiple calls where one would be enough.

Question for the creator, is this something which should be done with a BackgroundProcess instead of a recurring job ? Or maybe a new Jobtype ?

Best Regards,

Bas
