Mirek,

I'd prefer not to change the default value, but instead make our
configuration options include a units parameter.  If we add a units
parameter like discussed above users can specify however which way they'd
like to time slice their window, changing it to only support 5 minutes
might be great for you, but not so great for other users.

I think this applies to many other configuration options where units are
currently fixed.  I don't think we need to break and API or configuration
to resolve this, let's just extend it to give users more control.

Cheers
Martyn
