Chris Hill-Scott bc2e55a6b8 Send one-off messages as fast as possible ...

The vast majority of messages that are being sent one-off are
time-sensitive. A typical example is a caseworker on the phone who sends
a message at the end of the call. They normally wait until the message
has been delivered, so all the time they’re waiting is time when they
can’t be helping someone else.

What we don’t want to happen is for the messages they’re sending to get
stuck behind a big lump of GOV.UK Subscription emails or passport
reminder texts. I think the best way to do this is shift them onto the
priority queue.

We’re currently seeing queue sizes of up to 5,000 on the ‘normal’
queues; I don’t think there’s any risk of this change making the
priority queue more heavily-laden than this. Especially since the
traffic patterns of users sending one-off messages won’t be spiky.
