Edit Question
Title
Body
If I have an empty while loop in my code such as: while(true); It will drive the processor usage up to about 25%. However if I do the following: while(true) Sleep(1); It will only use about 1%. So why is that? Update: Thanks for all the great replies, but I guess I really should have asked this question, What's the algorithm behind sleep()? which is more of want I wanted to know.
