If you have a timer to expire after 1m , you dont check every 20 ms if it
expired, you use poll() that wakes after 1m if no other event happens.
This is how it is implemented in zloop.

Now, one would also need to know how poll works. I dont know exactly, but I
would look at unix signals <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_signal> as a
start.
