Answer 2

Has nothing to do with OS. Batch processing is the way, how jobs are done in a scheduled way. Batch by batch.

Answer 3

Batch processing does not per se result in better performance. It can in- or decrease performance. As I said, it's about the scheduling. You can make it worse, you can make it smart.

Answer 4

I said, read the wikipedia article. It has many examples and use cases. It will answer your question. Don't be lazy to do some research, if a topic interests you. If it doesn't interest you, and you just want someone to do your homework, then you are in the wrong place.

Answer 5

You might stress a machine unnecessarily, if you're requesting every x ms if there's a new job to be done. You might stress a database, if you do so and connect every few seconds. You might better process some stuff with a single connect to database in the night, while load is not as high as the whole day... And so on...

Answer 6

Say you are making food for 30 people. The dumb way to do it is to cook the same dish 30 times, one after the other. That would take days. Instead you can batch it and cook 30 portions at once in a big pot.
