Let me begin by telling you a little story. Some time ago I needed to run a script at work once a day. We had tons of machines ranging from big Unix servers to Linux desktops. Due to various reasons the script could only be run on a desktop machine. However using cron was disabled on desktops. All other machines allowed cron.

I'm not so sure things like jam or scons are any better at all this.
Jam surely isn't much faster, cf Haiku's build system.
