This is honestly a superb idea and this should be built into WordPress . Would seamlessly cut down on a TON of bot activity. Time is money for bots.

This plugin does what it says, it adds 1 second (adjustable) to your login time to reduce brute force attempts. Thank you.

Very nice little plugin. I thought I wouldn’t able to find that simple solution separate from other security features and will be compelled to write it myself. So thanks to the author for having it done for me. My failed logins log now...
