Cronjobs keep pausing itself

[maxime-rainville]

I have a test site with 1980 pages. The "Checking for external broken links" keeps pausing itself and I have to manually restart it to complete.

• On the kitchen sink, run the FTPageMakerTask task to create a lot of pages
• Create a page with a broken link
• Schedule the "Checking for external broken links" task

Expected: Task runs in one go without user intervention
Actual: Tasks keeps pausing itself and the user has to resume it.

Notes

• It appears that the task is creating subtasks as expected, but they appeared to pause. It would be worth confirming that the subtasks don't pause for a ~1min with proceeding on it's own.
• There's thoughts that it could be related to the CWP Platform. Testing this locally would confirm this.

@maxime-rainville can you please have another look at this one?

I triggered that task again in our test environment. Once again it pauses at 1229 page processed out of 1983.

It's been in that state for 3 days.

Looks like this could be the culprit? symbiote/silverstripe-queuedjobs#325

Queued Jobs 4.6.2 is out, which includes a fix for stalled Queued Tasks, so we should re-test this now.

Still an issue in CWP 2.8.0-rc1

Using queuedjobs 4.7.0
