Have you set QRUNNER_SLEEP_TIME in mm_cfg.py. Its normal Defaults.py
setting is seconds(1) which means that the runners should sleep for 1
second between looks at their queues.

If you have set QRUNNER_SLEEP_TIME to hours(1) or 3600, that would
explain what you see. If not, then for some reason, your OS is not
waking up IncomingRunner.
