I was trying hard (maybe a little too hard :) not to have any busy loops in
my code.

Getting used to dynamic queues will take me a bit of time. It's ever so
slightly too flexible. I've read about various usage scenarios in various
blogs. But in general, they all tend to be a bit on the generic and vague
side. Does anyone have pointers to real life writeups? I guess I should
attempt to find time to write one myself, once my project is nearing
completion.

Thanks,
Robby
