Active proxy creates connection every second

[aasay]

I am setting up a lot of active proxies that are going to be in remote locations. As I was setting up the first proxy I noticed that it is connecting back to the server ever second. I wanted to cut this back, and started looking at configuration variables. I have set all of these variables;

DataSenderFrequency=60
HeartbeatFrequency=60
ConfigFrequency=60

and still received a connection every second, so I went into the source to take a look. I am seeing in zabbix_proxy/datasender/datasender.c there is a default flag being set.

if (SUCCEED == upload_state && ZBX_TASK_UPDATE_FREQUENCY <= now - task_timestamp)
{
task_timestamp = now;

zbx_tm_get_remote_tasks(&tasks, 0);

if (0 != tasks.values_num)

{
zbx_tm_json_serialize_tasks(&j, &tasks);
flags |= ZBX_DATASENDER_TASKS;
}

// REMOVED
//flags |= ZBX_DATASENDER_TASKS_REQUEST;
}

After I commented this out everything seems to work as expected, but I am not sure of the ramifications of this. Should this be a bug, or is this something that needs to be in place?

Any help is appreciated.
