sleep

:content
Pauses the current request or task for a number of microseconds.

Use this for short waits in local tests, polling loops, or background tasks. Avoid long sleeps in normal HTTP render paths because they hold a worker process for the duration.

Example:


For whole-second waits, use `sleep()`.

:example
usleep(1000);
print("slept\n");
