You can't control how frequently collected data is flushed to the write target(s). Only how frequently read targets are probed. In the case of the network plugin, the data gets flushed once its buffer is full, which size defaults to 1.5kB. Are you collecting very little data with a relatively high read interval ? If not you might want to fire tcpdump to check you aren't loosing packets (remember the protocol is UDP-based). Note that the values dispatched include the collection time timestamp. So even if there is some delay before they reach their final destination, they should be stored with the correct time reference.
