A simple snippet for counting @future calls in a 24‑hour timespan, useful for monitoring peaks and acting accordingly.

Please note: supports up to 50,000 future calls in a 24h timespan.

public with sharing class AsyncApexJobUtils {
    public static integer futureCount() {
        integer c = [select count() from AsyncApexJob
            where JobType='Future'
            and CreatedDate >= :Datetime.now().addDays(-1) limit 50000];
        system.debug('#futureCount: ' + c);
        return c;
    }
}
