Comment (by karsten):

 That could work.  But I'm not sure if there's a platform-independent way
 to build it.  (One might argue that the current cron strategy is not
 platform-independent anyway, but hey.)

 Or maybe it's time to move away from having cron execute a new hourly Java
 process towards a single Java process that runs in a loop and sleeps after
 an execution until the next.  I just wonder how the service operator would
 learn when an execution fails, ideally via email.  Hmm.
