    Buddy,
    Nice plugin, but needs to be used with care. I think one nice feature that your plugin still doesn’t have is the option of performing links check in a pre-scheduled period of time. For example, everyday from 3AM to 5AM. It is very usual on backup plugins.
    I think it is much more precise than indicating server charge, and quite easy for you to implement.
    Just an idea, friend.

  • Super easy to do yourself: no need to add this in the plugin.
    Install Crontrol plugin.
    Then in Tools/Cron Events search for blc_cron_check_links:

    Move from hourly to daily and set start time at 3AM. Job done.

    Good plugins are plugins that do one thing well and that are not bloated. Let crontrol manage crons and this check links.
