When I landed Bug 475595, i left the interval between the time we would rebroadcast a low-memory notification as 100ms. Vlad suggested that we could increase this value: >100ms seems really aggressive; I'd make that 1000ms if not more. If we're out of memory we may be hitting some sort of swap, so it could well be longer than 100ms just due to swapping or whatever, and we'll end up doing a lot of flushing here for probably no good reason. We should investigate using 1s as the value.

could this have caused a Ts regression? it's in the range for bug 517915.
Dietrich, this change was to reduce the amount of work we do in low memory situations - so, i do not think it could be part of the regression.
