Steve,
The poll interval must be scaled according to the time
constant in order
to satisfy the mathematical constraints of the feedback

parameters have been carefully chosen so that the scaling is
directly
proportional. To be convincing for the skeptical engineer,
see the book
and/or the briefing slides on the project page.
