1-minute polling with RRDTool (can't do 1-minute polling without 
RRDTool) will get you better results, but the max you can graph before 
wrap is 546 Mbps / 68 MBps.  That's likely adequate but then again, 
you'll never know for sure...

BTW, I use 2950's and 64-bit counters on my gigabit uplinks. You may 
need to update your IOS.
