* How much delay is required to slow down code with a sync block?

# Goals
## Easy Install for Quick Meeting/Classroom/Conference Discussion
* <5 minute install
* Runs on MS-Win, Mac, and Linux
* Pure Java (and I guess browser)
* Optionally, just copy uber jar from USB stick, no internet access required.
* Quick and easy "[No Friction](https://github.com/eostermueller/snail4j/wiki/No-Friction-Distribution)" distribution.
* Provides self-paced, hands-on experience troubleshooting java performance.
* Great for a performance code review.
* Testing environment for any monitoring solution, to quickly test resource overhead of monitoring, confirm that monitoring can detect perf defects.
