Are you sure that a call to QFuture::waitForFinished() consumes CPU? 
That would be highly suspicious. Yes, the call will block and wait until 
the QFuture succeeds, but that's different from what a busy loop is.

Using waitForFinished() on each future is easier and more 
straightforward than adding semaphores.

With kind regards,
Jan
