Order of processing?

Post by dre123 »

Hey,

I'm curious in what order does SCM complete individual tasks.

Ex: I setup an Auto-follow task based on a search term. Once started, it seems like the program is moving in this order:
1) Crawling/scraping for list of SC accounts
2) Following that list of SC accounts w/ pause inbetween

This means the Crawling can take hours before even following anyone.

Am I wrong about this? Why wouldn't it do the following instead?

1) Crawl/Scrape for single SC account
2) Follow single SC account
3) Pause
4) Goto 1

Thanks in advance for the aid.

That is correct

I suppose if you were trying to do a VERY large shared action, it could, but 99% of the time that is not the case. How many items are you trying to scrape that takes hours?

because that isn't how it was done :)

Interesting. Is that the order of processing for commenting and liking too? Scrape everything, then do comments/liking after?
