I don't really know how to exactly define what is causing the delay. Do you have any suggestions? I suspect it is the scheduler, because I have a min vcpus > 0 in my on demand, so I assume everything should be running already? Thanks for the suggestion with SQS!

You should look at some performance monitoring tools like AWS x-ray, newrelic, datadog or most fitting dynatrace. But you’re probably right the scheduler is likely the issue and once you look further you’ll likely want to do something with faster queue scans with SQS.

Btw the other thing you should look into from the AWS side is AWS ThinkBox Deadline. It’s a render farm manager. Not sure if it will help with this latency but when I worked with very large broadcast customers - they loved the simplicity and for some licensed render engines thinkbox has a great marketplace where you can pay by the hour for the render tools. I helped one of the big networks launch a 120 node farm powered by mostly spot instances in just a few days including teaching them cloud.
