I wonder how well a 5 minute policy interval would scale though?

Glad it's working for you though. How many clients do you have?

We currently have the machine policy retrieval interval set to 30 minutes. I'm asking my admins to lower it to 15 minutes. Is that too low? What are you folks using for a machine policy retrieval interval? What are other factors I should consider? We bumped up our BITS rate considerably recently by the way. We are on SCCM 2007 R2.
