Cron jobs introduced in 2.2.24 are a great feature.
It would be nice if they could be limited per site.

The maximum number of cronjobs per site i guess..That would be nice indeed!

Yes. That's what I ment.
Like with the Database. You can limit how many databases one can have per site.

sorry, i am totally late for this thread (had no Internet for several weeks!), but i think, this doesn't make sense.

Example: i create a cronjob fired every 5 minutes. The cronjob runs a simple php-script.

this script looks like this (pseudo-code)
<?php
$minute = date('minute');
if ($minute ==5) include('job1.php');
if ($minute ==10) include('job2.php');
if ($minute ==45) include('job3.php');
...
?>

so i am able to run as many cron-job as i like by only having 1 job "installed". So your limitation doesn't work...
