Sounds good to me. I have gone to running the BackupPC_nightly at 9am
when most my machines shouldn't be doing a backup. Running it at
night during the prime backup hours just seemed backwards.

But then again, I have a machine that is dedicated to backups. If it
needed to do other useful work during the day, this might not make
sense.
