Automatically stagger scheduled report runs to optimize performance

When I schedule many reports to run around the same time, they risk overwhelming processing resources, so I have to schedule tasks to run minutes apart from each other. I would like to have a feature that smartly queues scheduled tasks to run in a way that optimizes speed and performance for all report runs and balances the system load. It would be even better if this feature would know when I need my reports to be ready by, and dynamically choose a start time based on the specified report finish time and its relationship to other scheduled report runs. This feature would be useful in both the Excel Add-in and the Jet Web Portal Schedulers.
