We think it is iportant to be able to tune such things, but if demand is
low enough (and so far it looks it's low enough) then patching feature.h
is perfectly adequate, in an effort to not cause too much extra bloat.

I don't think there is any such complex logic in the code (there are only
two intervals), so that would mena a redesign of the relevant code. Feel
free to patch :)
