looks good to me. if the weekly verify is still to costly you can look
around the net, there are nifty conditional calls, that allow you to
define things like every 2 week or last friday of the month

eg. this one scrubs a btrfs vol of mine, when it's the last friday of
every 3rd month, only if the volume is mounted

0 20 * 3,6,9,12 Fri  mount | grep -q /mnt/raid && ( [ $(date +\%d -d '+7
days') -lt '8' ] && btrfs scrub start /mnt/raid )
