Announcing sidekiq-iteration - a gem that makes your sidekiq jobs interruptible and resumable by design
I am publishing a new gem - https://github.com/fatkodima/sidekiq-iteration. For those familiar with job-iteration (https://github.com/Shopify/job-iteration) from Shopify, this is an adoption of that gem to be used with raw Sidekiq (no ActiveJob).

Making background jobs more resilient by default
Now that we are batching data together, we want to limit how long a single job can run. In order to tackle this, we leveraged functionality from the job-iteration gem.

Utilizing this, our job and module will now look like this: (For ease of reading, the bit of code already shown has been removed.)

Why does this function use a lot of memory?
