this also effects the speed of processing as the number of "finished" uploads increases.
each pass over the prerequisites (PACKED, MANIFEST, LAUNCH/TASK, TOMBSTONE) can take a while on a busy crawler, and can make for unnecessarily large log files if you tee draintasker stdout/err to a file.
i've created a script to move aside tasks containing a TOMBSTONE file to an "_done" directory alongside the xfer_job_dir, e.g.

xfer_dir => /1/incoming/ newscrawl newscrawl_ done
done => /1/incoming/
this can speed processing, and make logs smaller.
we may want to include this in normal processing. if so, we'll want to also update "get-status" to look for this _done series.
