How does django-tasks compare to celery?

I need to batch process records kept inside a database. New records are generated on the fly in realtime.

I've briefly looked at celery and stumbled on django-tasks Celery requires additional software. Not so with django-tasks. Has anyone had experience with django-tasks & its performance and reliability ?

It depends on what you want to achieve.

If you want to achieve good performance with a lot of small tasks running in background: Use celery.

On the other hand, if you want achieve good performance for a few, "heavy" tasks: Use django-tasks.

Interesting facts

Celery has a huge community.

Django-tasks's community is relatively small.

This means you will probably get more support with Celery, when you encounter problems.
