   The Processing Duration detail graph shows the scheduled job's average execution time and its 1-day moving average.
4. View the performance for the scheduled job over time by analyzing the Processing Duration detail graph.  

   Determine whether the job is running unexpectedly, running during business
   hours, or running during peak usage time periods.
5. View the job's details and schedule to determine what improvements you can make by selecting View Record.
   * Change the job's schedule if the job is running too often or during times of peak usage.
   * Determine the best time to run a scheduled job by looking for periods of low user activity on the Logged in Users graph on the Session Info tab.
   * Review the scheduled script or report and determine whether it can be optimized or removed.
