I have a component that needs to poll a SimpleIPC server repeatedly

While I do think that polling once a second will not do any noticeable
harm, a better design might be to push some kind of message from the
other site and wait for same in a function that does an appropriate OS
call.
(E.g a TThread doing a blocking wait for a pipe and then using
TThread.Queue to call an event handler function in the main thread.)
