[Colin Watson <cjwatson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm generally OK with something like this, but it might be wiser to pick something a bit more frequent, perhaps four or six times a day.  That would have the effect of spacing repacks out through the (working) day rather than clustering them all at a particular time.

A habit I picked up from somebody years ago was to select the minute part of a cron job either randomly, or by looking at the clock when selecting it and picking the minute part of the current time; the point of this is to try to avoid the effect where all the regular jobs on a system tend to happen on the hour, producing spiky load patterns.
