-For each host/plugin/type combination the C<network plugin> caches the time of
-the last value being sent or received. Every I<Seconds> seconds the plugin
-searches and removes all entries that are older than I<Seconds> seconds, thus
-freeing the unused memory again. Since this process is somewhat expensive and
-normally doesn't do much, this value should not be too small. The default is
-1800 seconds, but setting this to 86400 seconds (one day) will not do much harm
-either.
