Well empty for/next loops are bad thing in my opinion, they dont serve a purpose, and if you are aiming for timed delays, use Delay or something like:

WaitABit=Millisecs()
While (Millisecs()-WaitABit)<5000
Wend

Sure, the delay in checking may be in reality 5001 millisecs or more, never less, but it will guarantee the CPU will move on as soon as it can :)
