Unsure; NM will attempt to scan at least every 2 minutes, sometimes
faster.  Do logs (usually /var/log/messages) say anything about madwifi
taking a long time to return scan results?  Some excepts of the logs
would be helpful.

If you do send them, please gzip/zip/bzip2 them since the list filters
attachments greater than 80k I think.
