Well to be more accurate: it includes a job queue API with the actual implementation being pluggable. It does not do job queuing by itself. It's just like the cache API, actual implementation depends on the cache store.
True, thanks for the correction. The person I responded to said "job server" and I'm not 100% clear on what that would cover - perhaps job queue API would fit that description, perhaps it wouldn't.

However, I'm not complaining. ;)
