What does AskBot use djcelery for?

I'm working my way through the code, and I'm still a little unclear on what askbot uses djcelery for. My understanding of celery is that it lets one run asynchronous jobs and djcelery integrates it with django. Does askbot use it to run potentially long tasks (like sending email) asynchronously after a post is updated to avoid UI delays?
