I have been experimenting with ISIS and X using the main loop structure
indicated in the ISIS manual (Section 16.8 Xt version).  The
recommended loop causes excessive CPU usage since when no events exist,
it turns in to a busy wait.

I vaguely remembered reading about a change to the recommended looping
structure.  I was unable to find it in the comp.sys.isis archives nor
in the postings I have saved over the last few weeks.  Am I just
imagining this or can some one point me towards it?
