In my worker thread I do a tight processing loop and one of the

However, when the loop runs in the spawned thread, the display
doesn't get updated. If I insert a sleep(1) call into the loop, then
the display updates.
How much work do you perform on the main thread? If a lot, it's not
unexpected that you would se interruptions in display updates. You
might need to throttle or otherwise limit your callouts to the main
thread if this proves to be the problem.
You can use Instruments or Shark to get a view of the work being
performed on the main thread while you run your worker thread.
