if you have a function that launches an external process and it takes 2.55 
seconds, it will take the same when launched via the scheduler. The 
scheduler adds up the time it takes to create the web2py env (usually far 
less than half a second) in which the function is executed, but your 
"external process" needs to take the same amout of time in either way.
