netsnmp_select_info timeouts and run_alarms

we have written a custom snmp daemon,
we noticed it was reaching high cpu usage.

the reason was that netsnmp_select_info returned
decreasing timeouts, until it was returning almost
zero timeouts, which we passed to the pselect function.

I found suggestion to add run_alarms call in our loop,
and it fixed it.

why is the call to run_alarms required,
is it possible to reset the timeout counter in other ways?
