idle/sleep is more effective. 

mappFeedGenericTimeSlice will feed one timeslice of x number of milliseconds to some 
app selected by the system, but then Director continues doing whatever it does that 
consumes cpu. 

mappFeedGenericTimeSlice is there for when you are issuing a stream of fake user input 
commands using MasterApp, where you have to allow the other app a chance to respond to 
them.
