High load times include the start of every hour. If the load is sufficiently high enough, some queued jobs may be dropped. To decrease the chance of delay, schedule your workflow to run at a different time of the hour. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/actions/reference/workflows-and-actions/events-that-trigger-workflows#schedule).

### Scheduled workflow stopped running
95+

A scheduled (`cron`) workflow can stop running even though it is still enabled and manual or `workflow_dispatch` runs still work.
97+
98+
This can happen when the workflow's associated `actor` account is suspended, deleted, or deprovisioned. To restart it, a user with `write` access to the repository can commit a change to the `cron` schedule. See [AUTOTITLE](/actions/reference/workflows-and-actions/events-that-trigger-workflows#actor-for-scheduled-workflows).
