This *may* be something I suggested -- to wait for 1/8 sec. Not sure
whether this is
too much, or not fast enough, but more like a shot into the 'blue'.
Yes, 1/8sec was something you mentioned earlier and it turns out to be a
good choice. In my testing the loop makes on average 4 or 5 passes. Some
times it only take one pass, other (rare) times it can take many more
passes.
I'll post v7 addressing the comments.
I'll retest w/ v7 when it's ready.
