  my_yield_processor (equivalent of x86 PAUSE instruction) should be used
  to improve performance on hyperthreaded CPUs. Intel recommends to use it in
  spin loops also on non-HT machines to reduce power consumption (see e.g
  http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/articles/eng/2004.htm)
 
  Running benchmarks for spinlocks implemented with InterlockedCompareExchange
  and YieldProcessor shows that much better performance is achieved by calling
  YieldProcessor in a loop - that is, yielding longer. On Intel boxes setting
  loop count in the range 200-300 brought best results.
