Ok, then I'd have to say it depends on the type of server. If it's a CNR, use a timer. If it's another type of server and the jail is for an admin's jail command, use OPU. If it's for an admin command the player most likely deserves the time they received and they should spend the time crying about what they've done. It's supposed to be like real jail, you can't just take a break. It's supposed to be punishment and discipline. However, a CNR server would be different because it's fun to go to jail.

OPU doesn't slow down the server; however, it uses up a lot more bandwidth.

If that's your argument against OPU, I'd still use an AFK check inside the timer. I'd also continue there jail time when they reconnect if they tried disconnecting to bypass jail.
