Subject: [PATCH] ops: set default interval for stat collection to 5 seconds

When polling the NodeJS server for operations data every 10 seconds, the
data become coarse-looking when viewing it at fine-grain detail. If you
aggregate the data into a date histogram and the bucket size is 10
seconds, then there'll be missing data in every other bucket. That is,
unless the time bounds of the buckets line up PERFECTLY with the time
that operations data was collected, which is unlikely
