I’ve read it, and I found nothing to justify that piece of code. Can you please explain?


The while loop surrounds the whole thread, which does multiple tasks. The conditional is there to surround some work completing in a reasonable time. That's how I understood, at least.


Does not seem so clear to me. If so it could be stated with more pseudo code. Also the eventual need for multiple exit points…
