com.eibus.util.SleepWrapper

public class SleepWrapper
extends java.lang.Object

Rounds the given sleep-period to an approriate value so that if the Operating System is Windows the timer precision is not set too often. It is observed that multithreading timers less than 10 ms causes Windows clock to run too fast. More details is explained at http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6435126. Hence it is recommended that all Thread.sleep() calls should be invoked with parameter which is multiple of at least 10 milliseconds. We recommend the minimum sleep period of 50 milliseconds.
