My monthly billing statement is what tipped me off to the problem, but unfortunately my logs don't go back to Oct. 30. I have verified that in the past week my scheduled tasks are running in less than a second, at 10 minute intervals. The fact that 3 separate codebases across 2 different user accounts have the same spike on the same day is what made me think this wasn't something I was doing wrong.
I hadn't thought to set a max execution time for my scheduled processes though, and i'm going to do that going forward. Great suggestion.
