pulse vs. while

I was wondering...

Instead of using a really fast, laggy pulse to reset a crosshair/lasersite, could you use a while loop to do the same thing, but with no or less lag?

Ahh, the infinte while loop, a quick and easy way to crash the game!

Its a good idea, but in practice, it wouldnt be so pretty...

well, if you sync a laser pointer or crosshair, it's sure going to produce lag...
so just use pulse and the nosync flags for the cog.
