I have a database with a one-second granularity.  I sometimes update
this database twice a day.  No problem.  Just make sure heartbeat
allows it.

OK, when you try to fetch the RRAs from the same RRD it will currently fail.

Rephrase:
<AFAIK>
You _can_ graph data from different RRAs on the same graph.  In order to
aquire the data you need to fetch them from different RRDs.
</AFAIK>

But make sure you test this before you rely on what I say.
