	<sigh> Time to really read the library reference manual again...

	Though if I read this correctly, a long running action /will/ delay
others -- which could mean the (FFT) process could block collecting new
1-second readings while it is active. It also is "one-shot" on the
scheduled actions, meaning those actions still have to reschedule
themselves for the next time period.
