Highly valuable on large sites

Running the regular Drupal cron particularily on large sites can become somewhat problematic, specifically if you have some cron dependant items that need to run very often but you don't want all of the rest of the cron jobs in Drupal to always run with those important tasks at the same time thereby slowing down the site on cron runs (usually because caches rebuild etc). Elysia cron does a great job in splitting the cron runs up in individual steps. On our site, we want to have the video upload module to upload new videos to YouTube every 2 minutes however do not want other calculation heavy items such as XML sitemap or update status to also do their things every two minutes.
