OK, I'm going to sponsor this, thanks Colin Can you please forward the fix upstream? I don't know if it'll get any attention given the 'legacy' status that Seb mentioned, but might as well try IMO.

This seems a little excessive and I am sure that doubling the polling interval won't impact the responsiveness of the daemon. I am suggesting that the polling time is doubled to 60 seconds.
