Title:
  Cloud-images all run cron jobs simultaneously

Status in cron package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Cloud-images all run their cron jobs simultaneously, causing a large
  resource usage spike on the hosting physical infrastructure. It would
  be great if cron run-parts were run with a randomized sleep to spread
  this load.
