The description of the setting contains "The default value is 2 milliseconds.”
which to me implies that the unit is measured in milliseconds.  If we want to
spell it out, we could add the unit like how many other on the same page does:

-        Specifies the cost delay value that will be used in automatic
+        Specifies the cost delay value (in milliseconds) that will be used in automatic
