Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 Transients and options work in much the same way except that a) they can
 expire (hence no need for your options-related logic) and b) they're not
 stored in the database when using a persistent object cache.

 Anyway, if you feel a 60s throttle before any pinging occurs is in order,
 base your patch on 6698.4.diff, and schedule the ping to occur at time() +
 60 instead of time().
