Could that be code that does straight computation and does not switch 
threads at all, unless sleep-for is added?

Perhaps relatedly, diff-hl in "threaded" mode has a much better 
interactivity since switching to 'make-process' from 'call-process' for 
its external program interaction. But you're probably thinking of 
different kind of examples.
