RE: [Pyatcron-devel-list] Cron backend: a correction

[NICOLOVICI Xavier]

Quoted from the "at" man page:

***********
batch   executes commands when system load levels  permit;
        in  other words, when the load average drops below
        0.8, or the value specified in the  invocation  of
        atrun.
***********

Answer is when the system is NOT loaded

Batch could be useful, especially for system tasks. Just a question:
does it run when the system is loaded AND after a given time ? Or only
when the system is not loaded ?
