Bonsoir Chipp,

I'm not sure I understand what you mean...
What is sure is that a repeat until... is blocking Rev during the  
process without any wait x ms with messages inserted in the repeat loop.
But actually who cares from an user point of view?
What would you do in the meantime?
And how this could affect other apps?
Probably I miss what you want to mean :-)

If I look at Task Manager (Windows) I can see that there is no CPU  
high usage in Rev and, for example, Vista widgets go on working as  
expected.
What is your point exactly?
