| High | 400 | This task should be ordered ahead of most other tasks. It may be deferred a little, but if it doesn't run at some point, the user may think something is wrong. Assuming all constraints remain satisfied (including ideal system load conditions), these jobs can have an execution time of at least 4 minutes. Setting all of your jobs to high priority will not be beneficial to your app and in fact may hurt its performance in the long run.
