I've never quite understood when exactly we have to sleep and why? It seems
like it's already a pretty nasty performance penalty for updates, isn't it?

If we do have to sleep an extra second, we should at least try to only do it
on FAT filesystems to avoid penalizing the more rational filesystems.
