Just in case this workaround hasn't occurred to you... if you 
have to, you can put your processing into a timer object, doing 
a chunk of it each time the timer event fires (obviously you 
want to set a flag indicating the timer event handler is running 
so you don't have overlap.)

It's not really pretty but it may also have the effect of forcing 
you to write cleaner code since you have to maintain state 
between timer fires.
