As for System.currentTimeMillis(), maybe not as expensive as you think: if
I remember correctly, it's a JVM intrinsic (no JNI cost), and if mapped to
gettimeofday (which I believe is the case), it's a VSDO function on Linux,
which means it's pretty cheap (no user/kernel context change). Compared to
creating threads, and waiting on conditions, should be way cheaper.
