The Berkeley DB library requires the ability to cause a thread of control to suspend itself for a period of time, relinquishing control of the processor to any other waiting thread of control. The func_sleep argument must conform to the following interface:
int sleep(u_long seconds, u_long microseconds);
The seconds and microseconds arguments specify the amount of time to wait until the suspending thread of control should run again.
The seconds and microseconds arguments may not be normalized when the sleep function is called; that is, the microseconds argument may be greater than 1000000.
The func_sleep
