Seems to be sucking up CPU time #14

Just starting OSCWidgets with a five-button control window results in it using close to 50% of the CPU, as indicated by Process Explorer. Processor is an Intel Pentium G640 at 2.8 GHz, operating system is Windows 10 Home.

The problem is caused by the LogFile thread: Even if OSCWidgets is idle (no controls) it consumes all CPU cycles of one core.

By adding a short sleep the problem is solved.

Because the messages are buffered, the sleep can be as long as desired. I decided to sleep for 100ms.

I uploaded a commit with this fix:

Hope this helps!
