There is a difference... Say you gave a task A that should run every minute but takes 4 minutes.
cron will correctly start one process every minute and you will always have about 4 processes running in average. scheduler will schedule the tasks but will skip if already in execution, therefore it will only run a task every 4 minutes. cron follows your instructions without queueing the tasks and spiking resources if necessary. scheduler queues tasks and runs them when possible, compatibly with requests, but keeps resources fixed.
