Then start a second thread to respond to the event, have it wait on a
semaphore so it doesn't eat any processor time when it's not doing
anything, and give it a very high priority so that when it does start up
again it'll respond quickly, do its' thing, and go away again quickly.
That's what priority is for, you know.
