The unit of that setting is milliseconds (if no unit is specified).
zero disables that feature.
One millisecond seems like an awfully short period to allow a transaction to be idle.
I would figure values in "minutes" to be more realistic depending on the workload and characteristics of the application.
A transaction that has several seconds of "think time" between individual statements doesn't seem that unrealistic.
