Issue XD-3739: Incorrect refresh period for groovy scripts
All modules that allow groovy implementations (filter, script, transform, router, tcpclient) allow automatic refresh of the script when it changes. In the XD documentation it is stated that this refresh occurs every minute eg for filter at http://docs.spring.io/spring-xd/docs/1.3.0.RELEASE/reference/html/#filter "The script is checked for updates every 60 seconds, so it may be replaced in a running system. " This set up can be seen in the spring xml for the modules - eg (again for filter) {code:xml}	{code} However from the spring integration documentation http://docs.spring.io/spring-integration/docs/4.2.4.RELEASE/reference/html/messaging-endpoints-chapter.html#scripting-config it specifies that the refresh-check-delay parameter is actually in milliseconds - ie the above XD configuration would recheck the script every 60 milliseconds which may be a performance concern as it will be checking the lastmodified time of the script file. Ideally this parameter would be configurable - in our case we would usually eliminate the refresh check altogether (set to -1) as our scripts will not change (or if they did a redeploy of the module would pick it up)
