slight fix on my end.  use MOD to avoid executing on every pass, and GTE
because you may exceed the desired delay by a few millisecs.:

THIS SHOULD CREATE A ONE MINUTE TIMER!!
<CFSET tickBegin = GetTickCount()>
<CFLOOP FROM="1" TO = "1000000000000" index = "index">
<CFIF index MOD 100 IS 0>
<CFSET tickEnd = GetTickCount()>
<CFIF tickEnd - tickBegin GTE 60000>
<CFBREAK>
</CFIF>
</CFIF>
</CFLOOP>

There really should be a 'pause' tag that does not use much cpu.

I doubt that I am the first to say this but I will
repeat myself on the allaire forums.
