Why a high-performance job queue is needed - mbqueue

🚀 Why a High-Performance Job Queue Matters

Modern applications often handle thousands of tasks per second—emails, notifications, background jobs. Traditional queues struggle with memory efficiency, batch insertion, and distributed workloads.

That’s where mbqueue comes in: a lightweight, MongoDB-backed job queue for Node.js designed for speed, scalability, and simplicity.

✨ Key Highlights:

  • In-memory maps for fast caching & batching
  • Bulk insertion to MongoDB for high throughput
  • Supports parallel workers & distributed setups
  • Simple, scalable, robust

📦 Install: npm: mbqueue
📄 Docs & Examples: Check the npm page

💡 Perfect for Node.js apps needing high-volume, memory-efficient job processing.
