On an idle FR with SIM and registered to network this polling costs
around 3.1-3.5% of CPU:

Cpu(s):  4.2%us,  2.4%sy,  0.0%ni, 93.5%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si, 0.0%st
  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND            
              
 1461 root      20   0 82060  23m  15m S  3.1 19.3   1:22.81 qpe                
  

I was wondering if this could be configured somewhere...
