>Hi everybody,

>We have an application called Batch Service. This application has a form with a timer which fires in 10 minutes intervals. We want to put the application to sleep from Friday 7pm till Monday 6am. We put logic to not do anything in the timer event, but I'm thinking we should change the timer interval instead to put it into complete sleed and not waste resources.

with a 10 minutes interval the resources are irrelevant.

However, to change the timer interval should to be fine.

Another way is:
- implement a master Timer that stop-start others slave timers.
