Anacron 'Cannot run' messages

I've just received this:

/etc/cron.weekly/0anacron:

anacron: Cannot run - another anacron process is already running.: Resource 
deadlock avoided

Yesterday I had a similar one for cron.daily/0anacron:

I suspect that both of these happened while running updates - the laptop in 
question is slow.  Could that be the cause?

Does anyone know how soon after bootup anacron starts its work?  Should I 
expect it to be a lengthy process on a slow box?
