For something that's a bit more generic, you can also just use $RANDOM
with sleep. $RANDOM returns between 0 and 32k as a value, and you can
use a divider to reduce it.
For example, I use 'sleep $(($RANDOM/10)) && do_heavy_stuff' to
randomize the start of a heavy job out across just under a hour.

Very useful indeed. Thanks,
