Doh! Can't believe I missed that. I was multiplying in the call to sleep
but realized why shouldn't I do it when I initalize it from the options but
never took the sleep multiplier out. Leave it to me to assume it must be a
bug :)
BTW, while running should it be that unresponsive? It will still pick up
shutdown signals right?
