Queue only works with Query?

[gadragnaIx]

As the title suggests, im trying to queue a job with my data FromCollection but the job is stuck at processing.
After much investigation in starting to think its because ShouldQueue only works with FromQuery.

Is that so? And if it is i cant find it mentioned in the docs anywhere...

Thanks

It is possible, but wouldn't recommend. Better to either use query or queue the job yourself instead of using the built in queuing.

Why you wouldnt recommend it?

And also, can you think any reason why the job my be stuck at processing?

If i limit the queue:work to 3 tries, it always fails on the third one, if i dont specify a limit it just goes on forever.

Thanks

Well, you already fetched all the data into memory, so it doesn't bring any benefit. With from collection and queued it pushed all that data over the queue job which costs a lot of memory.

It's probably stuck because it used too much memory. Without a max tries, it will keep retrying the job indeed.
