James,
rrd_analizer is meant to be run every 30 minutes because it does an everage on the last 6 measures.
It was meant as a trending tool, to analize patters like errors.
So, you can modify RRD_analizer to use less measures (data points) using the $span variable, and change the cronjob to every 5 minutes.
Another idea will be to add a new poller/backend to check the value every poll run.
I don't think rrd_analizer will generate too much load. The poller running every minute can do that.

Okay so we have everything setup, we changed our poller to run every minute and set the rrd step values to 60 seconds. Now I noticed today though when one of our servers CPU utilization jumped to 100 it only created a event notification every 30 minutes. I gather that this is from the rrd_analizer running every 30 minutes. So my question is can I change this to run more often say every minute to 5 minutes? Would I have to change any other setting besides just the cron job? And would setting it this low beat the hell out of the box?
