This is how it will look for a thread which is always busy. That's a 
relevant case, but not the only such.

Do one with WORK replaced by (i & 1), and you get the other extreme. 
Applications that poll multiple sources of work before performing any 
actual processing, and which are following your advice about the use of 
the macro, will see these kind of latencies.
