Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-86
Severity: wishlist

I am running several low-memory servers, and cron.daily consistently
overloads the servers. Given that the times in /etc/crontab are fairly
random to begin with, I would find it most helpful if the times selected
for daily/weekly/monthly cron jobs was moved to sometime between 3am and
5am, which I expect is generally the minimal use time for many servers.

I realize that I can manually change the file, but it seems reasonable
to may to modify the default times to begin with.
