I checked some of the most busy Y! Finance boards and once an hour seems to be a good interval to not miss any messages. More advanced clients like Greatnews will notice that the feed hasn't changed (they get a 304 header) and won't try to reload it every time you click on manual update.
The problem is that there are some smart people out there who update their feeds every 10 seconds (!) and that would definitely be a killer for a project like this one (not to mention Y! probably banning our server).
