That's almost certainly totally the wrong thing to do. If you have short periods of increased interrupt latency or network latency, you want a long poll interval so that the samples with the high offsets (and delays) are ignored.

Forcing a short interval will make ntpd track the temporary errors in the time measurements.

Offset is not a direct measure of the timekeeping error.
