Yes, which is why if you were planning on only updating every five 
minutes it wouldn't usually make sense to have a step size of one 
minute.

In all cases, your step size and sample frequency should be related 
to the data you intend to put in - then the consolidation functions 
you use should be related to what you want to get out later.
