These code snippets have not been tested directly, and the benefits are purely theoretical. The only way to know for sure if they'll help is to devise stress tests for whatever you're trying to do. Run a stress test with code that doesn't use these methods, and a stress test with code that does, and see what code breaks first and worst. | |||

This simple example blocks concurrent calls, and replaces a Utility.Wait(X) call with a RegisterForSingleUpdate(X) call. If we used Utility.Wait(X), we'd suspend our stack for X seconds; by using RegisterForSingleUpdate and OnUpdate, we get rid of the stack entirely during those X seconds, and create a new stack to continue processing after the delay. | This simple example blocks concurrent calls, and replaces a Utility.Wait(X) call with a RegisterForSingleUpdate(X) call.
