In fact, many people complain that cron does wakes up their laptop every minute;
and that increase battery consumption, while systemd timers doesn't suffer from 
this.

[ Additionally,  cron  checks each minute to see if its spool directory's
[ modtime (or the modtime on /etc/crontab) has changed

[ Each minute the cron daemon wakes up and compares the crontab file entries 
against the current time.
[ If the five fields match the current minute then the command is executed.
