top delay value

Hello,

An unprivileged user could waste all CPU time by setting a low delay value in top (interactive or via -s).

Is there any possibility to deactivate this functionality without recompilation?

There are other top implementations that use a "secure mode" configuration
which avoids the setting of the delay value for unprivileged users.

Thanks

Dr. Markus Waldeck
