I thought Tiger was an upgrade?

Apparently Tiger has built-in maintenance scripts that run daily that delete temporary files, tidy up system logs, etc. and those things consume extra disc space. The problem with Tiger is that these now run when you start up, rather than while running, so if you leave your computer on for a few days the scripts don't run as often as they should so it uses up disc space. Grr. I leave my computer on usually, so I'm going to have to think about shutting down.

Is there any way to schedule a maintenance process/task to run, say, each night, in addition to startup?

Which is a complete flip-flop from the process in Panther. I guess they thought more people turn their computers off.
