There are many modules that register alarms to allow them to periodically
receive callbacks to perform some work.

The two worst offenders seems to be:

- ifTable, @ 15 seconds. This interval is chosen because anything much larger
could allow a gigbit interface to overflow a 32bit counter. If your machine
doesn't have a gigabit interface, or has native 64bit counters, you could
increase this value. I'll leave the math on how much you could increase it as
an exercise to the reader.

- the new cpu statistics code, used by the host resources modules, @ 5
seconds. This seems like quite low to me, but I'll leave it to Dave to explain
why such frequent polling is necessary.

Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
