It works for me but, I should mention that the code that was originally

sometimes sleep(100) takes only 94 milliseconds. I figured that it was
something w/ the timer resolution and upped it up to one full second.

I'm having inconsistent problems with the new geronimo commons
StopWatch test on my slow old powerbook. Perhaps in an attempt to get
on to more important things, apparently sometimes sleep(1000) takes
only 999 milliseconds.
I'm curious if anyone else observes anything similar and if anyone has
a suggestion about how to work around this. (buying a new computer is
not practical at the moment, unfortunately). I patched the test to
show some instances of this problem.
Thanks david jencks
This class doesn't actually do much - do we really need it?
This test fails on my Mac also. Sleep has never been accurate. I doubt there is any way to measure really test this class. Can we drop the test or give it a 10 or 20 percent margin of error?
