What do you consider a long pause time? In userland I consider anything above maybe 1 or 2 milliseconds to be a long pause time. The standards only get higher when it's something like a kernel. A kernel with even a 0.2ms pause time can

Not quite the same thing, but it's odd the way they attached 8-chlorotheophylline to diphenhydramine, renamed it "dimenhydrinate" and marketed as "non-drowsy nausea medication" (Dramamine). The added molecule is to
