Heh, it reminds me of the echo_sleep and echo_blocking_sleep
directives in the ngx_echo module:

http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpEchoModule#echo_sleep

The former is a non-blocking sleep using custom events and timers.
There's a known issue though. I should have registered a request
cleanup handler to remove my own timers when requests abort
abnormally.

Hope it helps.

P.S. I've cc'd the nginx-devel mailing list.
