Hi all!

Currently, when we submit a job with rush.  All the nodes pick up the job at 
the same time, and kill my little ole server.  All the nodes are fighting 
for data all the way through the render.  What I've been doing is to 
manually online the nodes one at a time, waiting about a minute between 
each.  It works great for my server, and the renders go smooth, but is such 
a pain to do.

Is there a way in Rush to have a slight pause (say 30-60secs) between the 
que frames so that my server can dish out the data to the nodes more evenly?

Thanks
