Did you consider the effects the service reaper frequency has? There are 
some paragraphs in he manual - at least, I remember reading reading a 
quite detailed overview of how checks are scheduled.

What I kept in mind was, among other things, that a service is only 
re-scheduled once its results are collected by the result processor, and 
that one fetches the results with the service reaper frequency. 
Basically, that should mean that it's not possible to have checks with a 
higher frequency than the results are processed, which is quite useful...
