Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. First clarify whether recycling should be driven by job count, lifetime, memory, or all three, then define the configuration and acceptance criteria for worker restarts and verify the behavior with targeted tests.

Description
Currently, Solid Queue worker processes run indefinitely, which can lead to memory bloat and potential resource leaks over time. This is especially problematic for long-running, high-volume systems.
Feature request:
Implement an automatic worker process recycling mechanism. This could:
- Restart processes after a configurable number of jobs processed
- Restart processes after a configurable time period
- Restart processes when memory usage exceeds a certain threshold
This feature would help maintain a clean state, prevent memory leaks, and ensure consistent performance without manual intervention.
Potential configuration options:
SolidQueue.configure do |config|
config.max_jobs_per_worker = 1000
config.max_worker_lifetime = 1.hour
config.max_worker_memory = 512.megabytes
