Sort of. I’m following [Signalling system - Human driven workflows](https://community.temporal.io/t/signalling-system-human-driven-workflows/160) by signalling, then querying occasionally. But I do have quite a few “human driven workflows”, so there can occasionally be a surge in queries. Is this not the way to go?

_(Worth mentioning that I am aware of the “synchronous proxy” workflow pattern, but I only became aware of it after putting quite a few workflows into production, so that migration won’t happen any time soon)_
