PushSharp Push doesn't process queue until stop

Question

PushSharp only processes the queue when stop is called. Does anyone have an idea how often push sharp will process the queue or flush it? I don't want to have to call stop and start every time I want to send a notification to conserve resources.

            pushService = new PushService();
            pushService.StartApplePushService(new ApplePushChannelSettings(prod,  cert.InputStream.ReadToEnd(), passConfig.Value));
  pushService.QueueNotification(
                NotificationFactory.Apple().ForDeviceToken("mydeviceid").WithAlert("Notifications Started!").WithSound("default").WithBadge(7));


            pushService.StopAllServices(true);

Answer 1

I'm a complete and utter idiot...

The main thread was completing execution before the queue timer could process the notification. StopAllServices forced the thread to wait... Maybe this will help someone else.
