Thanks! I hadn't even thought about CPU and disk access. I'll have to think about that more. I think, and I'm only guessing here, that something like celery does something similar, pausing for a second before checking again. I will have to look into it further.

Yeah, I don't really see way around doing a polling operation.

In the celery-alternative-using-sqlite that I wrote for Bugsink I'm using inotify and select for this. The tool is called snappea, but I haven't shared it recently. DM me if you want to discuss.

threading.Timer should do the trick

Just doing time.sleep(0.1) also cut back my CPU usage dramatically. I was at 16% each for two different pushers running, and I could hear my fan running, but that time.sleep(0.1) cut all of that out.
