Let me add that having a /etc/init.d/something script that sleeps before doing 
its work is bad because:
- it defeats the very concept of "boot sequence"
- it violates the years old assumption that you can put final actions in 
/etc/init.d/rc.local because it is executed last in the boot sequence

Having to recur to a script like 
...
set_governor conservative # once
sleep 63 
set_governor conservative # again
...
is frankly a shame, more than an inconvenience.
