I have a bunch of real uses for BackgroundDrb, but I also a very simple need to delay sending an email for about 5 seconds after a rails action completes. Basically I need to leave time for the DB to commit and sync to the slaves before the email can be sent
Is BackgroundDb the right tool for this job? Any other suggestions on ways to implement this? (I have seen suggestions to create a new thread and run the mailer from that thread, but it's not clear that actionmailer is actually thread safe..?) I'm thinking just to fire up worker threads which pause for a length of time before sending the email - is this likely the best solution? Any other suggestions?
