When it's time to pack things up and go away, the main thread calls CFRunLoopStop() on the child thread's run-loop, at which point CFRunLoopRun() returns in...

I need this to loop repeatedly without consuming all available processing time on the iPhone. Any help on completion will be most helpful, I've...
