Busy-wait issue....? #1264

FIrst of all thank you for Box64 and all the docs, I had very little trouble getting PalServer for Windows running on ARM64 :)

One question though, I noticed that the CPU usage is always maxed out - but not really, just as reported by the Linux OS. Is this possibly because of a busy-wait somewhere or something more technical?

Not a huge deal, I cap the CPU usage on the host anyway now that I've docker-ized it but it'd be nice to see the real CPU usage of the process :)

NB: FEX Emu does not have the same issue, though Box64 is faster - if having an unreliable CPU measurement on my control panel is the cost of that then so be it.

Thanks again!

Apologies, you would've been notified with an empty body (accidentally pressed Enter), surprised GitHub lets you post an issue with only title and empty body haha.

There are still a few busy wait yes. I'll probably try to replace some with better atomic later on (but a few might be left on).
