Would that be true of the PL/SQL lock timer sleep? In my ignorance of how it actually works I'm imagining silly code that hyperaggressively checks for time slept at a very fine grain. "I'm ready to run George, oh, ok, I'm yielding, now I'm ready to run George, is it time yet, huh George, huh George, huh?"
