Unfortunately as far as trusty is concerned, it uses the legacy cron job and not the new systemd timers which spread the load over 24h, so it only is able to randomize over 30 minutes starting from the cron.daily run time (6am IIRC, probably UTC as everyone runs servers in UTC).

I don't think anyone remembers why we didn't backport the switch to timers to it (did we not have [working] timers in 18.04), but also they shouldn't then see more load than the archive mirror, this shouldn't be a new problem in that sense.
