You shouldn't have to ask this. If there's only one thread running, while 
that thread is doing some work, no other work is being done.

The question is then: why are you taking so much time? If your processing 
operation does take that much time, then yes, use a thread. Otherwise, 
maybe you should consider splitting the work?
