This is a tough case. Delays are definitely not meant for 1s accuracy, 
there will always
be delays (haha...i'll see myself out...). I actually find it odd that you 
have so many jobs
that take less than a second to finish, maybe a job queue is not the right 
tool for the job?
Most of my background jobs are more in the 15s-15m range

You could also use job dependencies, so later jobs only run when the 
earlier ones are
finished.
