- **Answer:** When you run multiple jobs concurrently, you can speed up your processing dramatically. *Normally you wouldn't set the workers to 10 for example, but with HireFire you can tell it to Hire 10 workers when there are 50 jobs (would normally be overkill and cost you A LOT of money) but since (see Q/A above) Workers are pro-rated to the second, and HireFire immediately fires all workers once all the jobs in the queue have been processed, it makes no different whether you have a single worker processing 50 jobs, or 5 workers, or even 10 workers. It processes 10 times faster, but costs the same.*
