CakePHP Queue Plugin

I just set up the CakePHP Queue plugin (https://github.com/dereuromark/cakephp-queue) and it works great. I'm building a messaging app where messages and replies are distributed via web sockets. Before the plugin the model layer was emitting the messages after save, which introduced a delay for the sending user while the web socket worked. With the plugin that delay goes as the messages are queued and emitted in a different process.

The challenge I have now is that - as I want the messages to be emitted instantly - my cron job is set up as:

*     *    *    *    *  cd path/to/app && Console/cake Queue.Queue runworker

…because even a second delay is too long. This is killing the CPU, which is running at 100%.

What is the recommended config for both the queue.php config file and cron job so that I get instant processing without CPU burn?
