I have used Thread.sleep() in a webapp, but not within a servlet as such. I
wrote Runnable classes that were started in their own thread of execution
when the webapp started up. This worked fine.

prohibited in the J2EE spec and it is not hard to
comprehend that invoking sleep on a thread that is
processing multiple requests could cause serious side
effects. Still I hear rumors that Tomcat allows sleep
invocations and I occasionally see it done.
