Comment:

 Can you take a look at the attached scaling_jobqueue_ctp_1.diff patch and
 see if it still has the desired effect on your server.  I don't have time
 to test my changes thoroughly over the next few days, so you may have more
 time to run it through it's paces than I can.

 I'd like to keep the max jobs setting for people who don't want the
 JobQueue to consume all available CPU such as those running the JobQueue
 on machines doing software encoding or on workstations doing other things.
 I moved some things around in the patch to accomplish this.  Just to be
 safe, the code also falls back to a max of 1 job if the user sets the
 setting to 'Auto' but runs the JobQueue on a machine that isn't supported
 by the getCPUStats() call.
