Running scheduler cronjob every minute means at least 1440 "impressions"
per day (added to the regular page impressions in the frontend +
backend). That might indeed be a problem for a hoster that is only
expecting a very few 1000's impressions per month.

But running scheduler every 5 minutes gives only 288 impressions a day.
8640 impressions per month. A number that will hardly harm a regular
hosting environment.

Cheers,
