Short answer no. I'm not sure If thats a good thing in your use case or not.
Basically flex is single threaded so the events only get processed after the loop finishes. If you need it to be otherwise you have to break out of the loop. The other problem with doing a 100000 iterations is that you have basically made the user interface unresponsive while the loop is iterating. I would think about breaking it down with a psuedo thread but that will give you problems with the checkbox if you want them to all be processed concurrently.
