the network plugin fills an internal buffer and only sends out a packet if that buffer is full. Usually there fit about 20 values into one packet (some more if you only have one plugin due to the way the values are stored), so one packet every 20 minutes (assuming a 60 second interval) is perfectly normal. Usually client create way more than 20 values each interval, which is why one usually doesn't notice this. Is that a problem for you?
