I can perhaps see idling the connection to keep it open when the poll rate is at ~ 1 minute, however what about when the poll rate decreases to ~ 17 minutes? (or less often if so configured)
There are no network cost in keeping a TCP connection "idling", as there is no traffic in that state. (The exception is if you enable keepalives, and you wait hours between real traffic, but even then the traffic is very very small.)
