Thank you guys for your answers. You are right and I know about all this 
approaches.

But I have to say that sleep() needed in object that doesn't know 
anything about his thread.

And my question is just theoretical: is this approach good or such 
sleep() implementation not so good and why? I.e. will such sleep() 
release processor's time for another thread or not?
