usleep

[Ken T. <ke...@we...>]

Hello,

I've been trying to use usleep to get some millesecond delays in a prom
programmer but the delays are about twenty times too long i.e.

  for (i=0 ; i<500 ; i++)
    usleep(1000L);

should sleep for about 1/2 second but actually sleeps 10 secs

Is this a kernel problem ?

Ken.
