Hi,

You should seriously consider installing the 'at' job
manager for run-once tasks, or 'cron' to schedule tasks
regularly.  Try to avoid spreading time-scheduling
around, especially into memory hungry Perl processes
that just sit around doing nothing.

man at
man cron

However, you may have to contact your administrator
for these.  Easy though if you own the machine.
