Hi!

I guess that having an at daemon will be better. That is, your system won't be 
starting a new process every minute just to load a file and check if it needs to 
start a new job. You'll have a sleeping process that will check /var/spool/atjobs 
(or wherever your atd spool directory is) for jobs.

Just my $.02 :)
