It may appear that jobs are not being run if the queue has grown so big that it takes forever for new jobs to be dequeued. The docs seem to cover this already: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Job_queue Also, of course check your error logs and take a look at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:How_to_debug -Jeremy

Have you read: http://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgJobRunRate Smaller wikis or less traffic ones... Set up a Cron job to runJobs.php every 5 mins or so. Just use --maxjobs set at 10 or 20 or something in the middle.
