Really only by upgrading to nagios-3. You _could_ wrap your host check
in a script that issues a sleep() after each run but this will play
havoc with your other checks. Nagios versions prior to v3 will stop
_all_ other processing until the host check completes
(max_check_attempts is reached). Nagios-3 introduces significantly
better host checking methodology.
