Processing is already a rather low income and something you do as a side lifeskill such as training and fishing. Please make it convenient by letting us process without having to reset every 15-20 minutes.
How do you balance this against cooking and alchemy utensil durability ?
Those utensils are the main reason cooking and alch also have to restock after 15-20 mins too.

Processing can't be compared to cooking/alchemy. On these activities you are getting additional benefits such as byproducts, imperial and in case of cooking an option to slow cook but get more items back in return which can be beneficial in cases.
Not to mention that the overall profit of items you could potentially cook constantly is a lot higher than what you could process. Figpie at 130m/h and grilled bird meat at 70m/h. Most of the processing items are currently extremely high priced on the market and even with those prices you're looking at only 70m/h on something like fir plywood. If you look at other items on a more normal price you're looking at 20-40m/h and you will be heavily market blocked as the overall volumes of these items are rather low and could most likely not even support 30 people processing from storage to storage.
You will not get rich from processing. It's just a convenience thing for people who still use workers and have big piles of tier 1 materials stored up. In any case it would also benefit people that do cooking with flour/dough
Honestly, I've been wanting this for a while. The Venecil dress has absolutely no value at this time as a result of weight limits. For a large number of processing items, such as grains, the dress is completely useless, as a bit of math will tell you the ideal number of items to put in your inventory so you'll finish them as you reach 125% in weight. For those items where your weight goes down as you process from your inventory, there still isn't enough benefit when you're processing 250 batches at once. I blow through my entire weight worth in minutes.
