It's been a while but my strategy was similar. There also were registry settings to decrease the delay between checks. Another thing to consider is monitoring top level items and skipping lower level monitors if they are healthy. A good example is a web server. If the URL is ok you don't need to ping the server, check the www service, https ports, etc. Most ping checks can be skipped if the server has responded to some other monitor.
