+InfluxDB doesn’t guarantee that a task will run at the scheduled time. During busy
+periods, tasks are added to the run queue and processed in order of submission.
+The scheduled start time and actual start time can be viewed in the logs under
+`scheduledFor` and `startedAt`.
+
+Task execution time doesn't affect the time range queried. Tasks will query
+over the set time range as if executed on schedule regardless of delay.
