PR Summary

Medium Risk
Removes automatic retries for a long-lived dispatcher that previously OOM-killed and could leave dispatches stuck. Reliability depends on other cleanup rather than task retry.

Overview
Stops Trigger.dev from retrying table-run-dispatcher (including OOM escalation to medium-1x). The task still runs on small-2x.

Retries were treated as unsafe because the loop is not fully idempotent; the comment no longer claims a crash will resume from the DB cursor via a new attempt. The config test that pinned retry.outOfMemory / maxAttempts is removed.

Greptile Summary

The PR moves the table-run dispatcher directly onto the medium-1x machine preset and intentionally removes task-level retries to avoid replaying non-idempotent work.

• Updates the dispatcher machine preset from small-2x to medium-1x.
• Removes automatic retry and out-of-memory escalation configuration.
• Updates the configuration test to assert the new base machine.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge with no actionable correctness or security issues identified.

The new machine preset is already supported and used elsewhere in the repository, while retry removal is an explicit design choice for non-idempotent dispatch work with stale-dispatch cleanup retained as the failure backstop.

Important Files Changed
