I have been trying to use delayed_job for about 1 hour on Windows with no success. Before going off and trying the next candidates, I decided it could be wiser to ask for other experiences of background job processing under Windows. Has anyone used something succesfully with Rails 3?

    platform independent (including winblows [sic])

    There are a few forks though, maybe you will find one that you can use without much pain.
