You can probably build a sleep() function in C, and then use that to
cause delaying in a PL/pgSQL set-returning function. Something like
#include <postgres.h>
#include <fmgr.h>
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(sleep);
Datum
sleep(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
{
int32 delay = PG_GETARG_INT32(0);
sleep(delay);
PG_RETURN_VOID();
}
