post on my blog: We moved a apps cronjobs from Whenever to Sidekiq-Cron. Also added a small DSL inspired by Discourse's mini_scheduler for adding cronjob run definitions in Ruby instead of an external yml/json.

@zealot128 I like your DSL, there. We also made the switch off of whenever, because multiple hosts meant cronjobs were a special case for one host, and also switched to sidekiq-cron, but later moved to sidekiq-scheduler because its polling was more efficient.

@TALlama thanks for the heads up. I read about the polling. Was it a huge issue for your deployment?

@zealot128 we have a lot of tenants sharing a single host, so it added up to quite a load.
