You can set-up a shutdown handler though, which will get called.

sleep(2) should not trigger a 1 second timeout. Currently the time
counted for max_execution_time timeouts is CPU time, not wall time.
You can probably implement this already with PHP's tick functionality
(https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.register-tick-function.php), as
long as the code in the anonymous function does PHP statements/function
calls.
If your problem is waiting for an external resource to be available
(database call, http call), then instead you should be able to use
functionality of these services to handle your timeouts.
cheers,
Derick
