Remember the logfile will still have 5min interval 'buckets', not matter how 
often you decide to poll for data.

You will end up with probably nothing.  This is because your MRTG (in daemon 
mode) will only poll every 10mins, so MRTG will only store data in every other 
'bucket' in the database.  This means you'll have only 50% of the data and the 
rest will be unknowns, so the XFF setting will probably result in your data all 
being displayed as unknown...

Chunky daily graphs.  But not too bad, and just the same at the lower 
resolutions (weekly, monthly, yearly)
