Subject: [PATCH] Add a refresh delay on globalstep

The globalstep causes re-calculation of area checks for all players on each tick. On larger servers, this quickly becomes a potential source of CPU pressure.

This change adds a configurable refresh delay to allow server admins to alleviate the pressure.
