This could, for instance, be caused by a faulty MAX setting.
Another possibility is updates that are further apart than heartbeat
allows for.

Log a few of these.  When you have a few values, try to calculate the rate by
hand and check the MAX setting.  Also, check the heartbeat setting.

By creating a new database with appropriate start and end times, you can
debug the whole process.  Just dump the db after each update.
