I saw this problem once. It turned out that the message queue was not
being pumped for all handles, and it caused the message queue for the
process to max out (10,000 messages, I think).
Make sure that in your custom message pump you are addressing all
threads and all window handles you have created. In my case, I had the
message pump of one thread mistakenly reading only messages for a
specific handle (using a non-zero handle when calling GetMessage()
function). I hadn't noticed that the thread was receiving other
messages and they were accumulating and filling up the queue.
I fixed this by changing the GetMessage() call to receive all thread
messages, handling the ones I needed to handle, and calling the default
WndProc for the rest (or something like that -- it's been a while).
