Shutdown won't always allow process to exit

[geekytime]

I'm trying to make sure that I can start up and shut down kue, both for my app, but also for testing and utility purposes.

If I run the following script, kue starts up and shuts down after 3 seconds, as expected:

var kue = require("kue");

console.log("kue.createQueue");
var jobs = kue.createQueue();

//jobs.create("job").save();

setTimeout(function(){
  console.log("jobs.shutdown");
  jobs.shutdown();
}, 3000);

However, if I uncomment the line that creates the job, this script will never exit. It just runs forever until I send a kill signal, even if I extend the wait time, and process the job successfully.

I am running on Windows (although not by choice). Not sure if that would change things or not.

Am I misunderstanding the shutdown function? Shouldn't calling shutdown free up all of the listeners and allow the process to exit, even if jobs have been created or processed?

add disableSearch option to your createQueue, and read #412

Perfect. That makes sense. I figured there was a connection getting left open, but I was digging in the wrong place!
