FREQUENCY and ENABLED can be edited. For example, to update the frequency of the mysql.inno metrics:

       mysql>update performance_schema.setup_meters set FREQUENCY='30' where name = 'mysql.inno';

The maximum number of meter instruments which can be created is set by performance_schema_max_meter_classes.
