All intervals in DXSpider are measured in seconds. Sometimes fractions
of a second (but very rarely). The syntax is there really for my
benefit, because I can't easily divide by 60 in my head. You will see
stuff like xx*60 or yy*3600 or even zz*86400 (minutes, hours and days)
all over the code.
If you want to set them to something (say with a set/var on startup),
then it is perfectly legal to do the same sort of thing there.
