Assume that I have spawned a task to the TaskServer.

The spawned task checks for a 'condition'  If this 'condition' is true(), then 
the task will complete.

If the 'condition' is false(), the task will sleep for a specified interval 
(such as 15 seconds) and then will spawn a task to do basically the same check. 
 This process will continue until the 'condition' evaluates to true.

Couple of questions.

1. Is there a better way of accomplishing the goal outlined above?  The above 
appears to work but was curious if others had a better idea.
2. When you use xdmp:sleep within a task on the Task Server, are you still 
consuming one of the threads which are configured for the Task Server during 
this period of sleep time?  I wouldn't want to run into a situation where all 
of my configured threads are doing this 'condition' check instead of the real 
work.

Thanks.

Darin.
