Not sure who came up with claiming the stdin reader being a busy loop. But the stdin reader has never been a busy loop in dwm, it is select()-driven. The point why you might notice high loads is not because of dwm, it is because your input feed produces high load (most likely because you are using a sleep 1 based shell loop with lots of processes being involved).
