This is strange. Are you the sysadmin? It sounds like someone replaced the sleep command with one that works in tenths of a second instead of seconds. Does sleep 150 do the trick?

When I do a "cksum /usr/bin/cksum /usr/bin/sleep, I get:
1252908489 6844 /usr/bin/cksum
2990595405 4580 /usr/bin/sleep
What do you get?

Also, type "date", wait 15 seconds using a watch, then type "date" again. Did the system time advance by about 15 seconds?
