well, actually you can update in milli second resolution, its just
your stepsize that is limited to seconds ...

it seems that the person who implemented the update time checks in
rrdcached did not know this and the check therefore makes sure that
updates are at least 1 second apart ... the check in rrdcached
needs fixing, so that it takes x.y formats into account ...

cheers
