c# - Alternatives to Thread.Sleep() for simulating pauses

So Thread.Sleep() is bad (http://msmvps.com/blogs/peterritchie/archive/2007/04/26/thread-sleep-is-a-sign-of-a-poorly-designed-program.aspx).

Is there any recommended alternative to simulating a pause in execution of a program? Eg a loop? Although I suppose this involves a lot of overhead in initialising variables, checking the bool condition, etc.

Thanks

If you are only going to simulate a pause (as in for test purposes), I think Thread.Sleep is a perfectly valid approach. On the other hand, if you are actually waiting for something, some sort of thread-safe signalling mechanism would be better (check the types that inherits WaitHandle).
