This introduces a flushes_per_second() public function, accessible through the source module. This PR increases the flush frequency from 1hz to 100hz. Old configuration files remain backwards compatible. The new code will continue to accept flush_interval values that are integers, but will also now accept floating point values in order to specify sub-second flush intervals. At 100hz, the lowest delay is 10ms.
