flag enabled by default when using small or identical intervals?
My Observations:
1. When queries have the same interval, they are executed within that interval. For example, with a 30-second interval, execution happens within 30 seconds, and with a 60-second interval, it happens within 60 seconds. However, I've noticed that the execution time increases as the interval increases. Why does this happen?
2. It seems like osquery executes the queries sequentially.
3. I couldn't find any information about the schedule_splay_percent
flag.
Any insights or clarifications would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help!Mike Myers

default value is 10 (percent), regardless of interval value, based on a look at the codeMike Myers

percent splay adds a random +/- 10% to each scheduled interval, to avoid all hosts simultaneously returning results to the serverMike Myers

and I believe that means you don't have to explicitly set it, it will be 10
unless you set it otherwiseMike Myers
