How about the overhead from cron? I mean, each time it runs rmmod, it
also runs a shell.... (and I think, I hope :), the kernel doesn't do that)
I didn't look at the code, but does the kernel also do 'rmmod -a' if there
are no unused modules?? (I hope it doens't do that either...)

We don't all have CPU-power to waste ...
