About This Schedule
The cron expression */6 * * * * triggers a job every 6 minutes — at minutes 0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, and 54 each hour. That's 10 executions per hour, or 240 per day.
Every 6 minutes is a good choice when you need something slightly less frequent than every 5 minutes but still fairly responsive. Since 60 divides evenly by 6, the intervals are perfectly uniform.
