Performance improvements over action scheduler?

[binaryfire]

Hi guys

I'm building out a WordPress based app at the moment. We have full control over the server stack, so we could easily implement this instead of WP Background Processing or Action Scheduler. However, RabbitMQ / Gearman would be running on the same server as the site. It wouldn't be on a separate server.

Is there any performance benefit to offloading jobs to a separate service if the service is on the same machine?

Cheers
