c# Thread issue using Invoke from a background thread

Question

I\'ve got thread, which processes some analytic work.

   private static void ThreadProc(object obj)
    {
        var grid = (DataGridView)obj;
        forea

Never, ever, every use Thread.Sleep(0). It doesn't do what you think it does and will cause you nothing but pain. For example, in a tight loop the OS may decide that the thread that just slept is the next one to run. As a result you won't actually yield the thread.

Try your code again using Thread.Sleep(1) every N iterations where N is about 0.25 to 1.0 seconds worth of work.

If that doesn't work let me know and we can look at how ThreadProc is created.

EDIT

Argument for never using Thread.Sleep

Thread.Sleep is a sign of a poorly designed program.
