Yeah, don't put the queue_task code in the model, as it will get executed
every time the model is executed. If you just need to set up the task once,
you can do so by directly inserting a record in the scheduler_task table
via appadmin or by calling queue_task() in a web2py shell. Or you could
create a special restricted-access control function and visit its URL just
once to schedule the task.
