While users can send compute intensive tasks to background processing, there is 
no management of the number and intensity of tasks. It is highly likely (and 
desirable) that the number of 'hard' tasks increase over time. These can be ALA 
tasks (e.g., processing layers) or user-tasks. 

It would therefore be wise to setup a way to shuffle such tasks off to a 
pipeline that could schedule and manage compute-intensive tasks and notify 
authors when complete. In this way, we could better manage impact on servers. 
Obviously a separate server for the pipeline would be neat.

More of an enhancement than a bug, and still a significant issue that relates 
to a need to tap 'supercomputer resources' such as NCI.
