Re: Main Thread UI and Detached Thread

Yes, but in some cases the loop doesn't run for 10,000. It could run for 5 iterations or 100,000 depending on the # if files to delete.

There's no caveat in the docs on the use of performSelectorOnMainThread:withObject:waitUntilDone:modes - the docs make it sound that there are no restrictions on how often or which selectors can be called.

In my case I only call 2 each time through the loop - one method on the main thread to update the progress bar, one to update the message.

Are you calling performSelectorOnMainThread:withObject:waitUntilDone:modes on every iteration of the tight loop? That seems like it could be terribly expensive. What if you throttle it back to every X (ten, hundred, thousand, etc) iterations? My speculation would be you're overwhelming your receiver.
