I would say for any large adult constricting snake (boas, the larger pythons etc) 7-10 days is way too often. Once on rabbits anything under 3 weeks I'd consider excessive and for some species positively power feeding.
My olive pythons will be on a 4-6 week schedule when fully grown as will my scrubs. All food machines but that doesn't mean they should be fed often.
