Would love to see multi-threaded workers. That's one of the pros of using sideki...

I'd be interested in what it might take to swap out the redis code for disque in Sidekiq.

Not fun. Sidekiq is pretty closely married to Redis datastructures unfortunately.

However there are clones like Shoryuken [1] that would be easier to port.

For giggles I spent an hour this evening and added support for Disque to the pluggable system I help maintain [0].

Things I can say: the ruby disque library isn't really fleshed out yet. It's alpha, so that's fine, but it's got a ways to go. For example, it doesn't directly expose ACKJOB as a command. The server is equally alpha, things like HELP don't do anything yet, and some options on some commands appear broken. But hey, it was a fun way to spend an hour.
