Slowing down my code

[spacehog]

I need to make a loop progress slower than it currently is. I have code that loops through a list of about 10,000 users and checks them against our companies LDAP server. Well this week our company instituted a policy that only allows around 200 hits per minute to the server from a single machine. Once you exceed that limit they lock your machine out. I found this out the hard way.

Is there a way I can force my code to pause during each iteration of the loop?

Latests versions of CF, the sleep() function. Earlier MX versions
java.lang.Thread.sleep() functions. Google for the exact syntax.
