if you throttle the system so badly the ui thread doesn't get scheduled whilst you're working yes that can happen. but normally if you're only using one or two threads it's fine. i haven't seen that sort of thing for quite a long time.

I see it often, especially with experienced devs coming to JavaFX for the first time. They'll write a long-running looping operation in the call() method and add in runLaters(). Sometimes, they get deferred until the end.
