Yes unfortunately it does block on JavaScript. I'm not sure why that
approach was taken but there are workarounds. Are you by chance using
the javascript encode function?  They've given a JMeter Encode function
in 2.10 and up. 

My suggestion is avoid JavaScript and use a JSR223 Pre (or Post)
processor with Groovy and the appropriate cache size if you can't find a
JMeter built in function that's appropriate.
