Back in 2001, someone asked (on this list) if there were some
utility that would parse a bunch of crontabs and show you when
all of them would run, so you can spot clusters and collisions.

https://github.com/alpaker/cronviz

is one such tool; I just came across it. I was certain that if 
I wrote one, I would be reinventing a wheel. Indeed.

The useful google keywords turn out to be "crontab visualizer".

(I have Bcc:d the original poster, 16 years later. It probably
won't help much.)
