Perfect tamer for Time Machine

I have two Macs on the network that are set up to do time machine backup to alternating network storage drives. Both running time machine at the same time caused backups to run a long, long time, if they both happened to be going to the same network drive at the same time. My macbooks are high end, so the overhead was not all that bothersome, but the runtime was.

I installed Backup scheduler on both machines and set it to run once a day with one machine starting about 6 hours after the other. This has worked out well.
