i just tried chrono @ game start to see how it would work out and you end up with around 10 more minerals but 17th+ probes are all 10 seconds later than if you do normal first chrono @43 seconds
unless you pylon/gate scout its the only thing that makes sense otherwise your 17th probe will finish before first geyser is close to done
normally 2nd chrono is saved until cycore/2nd pylon finish @ 23 supply from what ive experienced ..

I talked some with Harstem about it and he said that you should chrono before pylon any time you don't care about your gate being a few seconds late. So in PvZ you should always do it. I agree with the 2nd chrono now though. Saving it until after you scout so that you aren't being cheesed is much safer and then then next time you can use it is after your 2nd pylon finishes. But it's also important to note that at 3:00 you will have 1 extra probe (30) with chrono before pylon than you do with chrono after gate (29). Not a massive difference but it's something.
