[Bug 1427901] [NEW] Performance improvements for cron job

 

Public bug reported:

For a client, I recently implemented some performance improvements to
the Mahara cron job. I've opened this bug to upstream them.

The specific improvements are:

1. Make it so that the cron doesn't run auth_setup()

2. Make it so that the cron doesn't run while the site is in the middle
of an upgrade (this can cause a pile-up of cron tasks waiting for a DB
lock to be released)

3. Removing the obsolete "forcelocalupgrade" option.
