Change dispatcher should limit the amount of filtered changes in one go otherwise it might waste its work because it didn't manage to finish in 60s when its lock gets invalidated. Some Wikis have a very sparse hitrate, where there are 800000 pending changes but only 1 of it needs to be dispatched to a wiki.
Perhaps start with a limit of 100 * batch size. Maybe add its own command line setting.

this is indeed a problem. Dispatcher gets stuck in a loop when finding pending changes on small wikis that might not have a lot of relevant changes.
