The effect of noise delayed decay is observed for the case of overdamped sine-Gordon equation. It is shown that this noise induced effect, in the range of small noise intensities, vanishes for junctions lengths greater than several Josephson penetration length.7 pages, 9 figures, to appear in Journ. of Bifurcation and Chaos, 2008Superconductivitytext
