Ensure eval time step is >= 86400.

As a safety measure (to prevent the server from
being too loaded), the evaluation time step
cannot be set to a value lower than 86400 secs
(i.e. # of secs in a day).

Note that results are currently not uploaded  more often than
once a day anyway, so lower step values make no sense.
