Comment 1 for bug 1523691

I'm wondering if the right way to do this might be for periodic sync to grab a connection to the Pool Manager's rpcapi, and call crud_zone's that way.

That should enable any other pool manager worker processes locally or elsewhere to take up the jobs that are being created due to the periodic task, not relying on just the one process, and any exceptions that come up won't be catastrophic to the periodic process.

Thoughts @Kiall / @mugsie ?
