I have two methods in the main thread that I call from the worker using
performSelector, etc. The method for updating the progress bar for
example looks like this:
The one for the message is similar. All the code works perfectly when I
sleep or if the worker terminates so I know there is noting wrong inside
the selectors I am calling.
This is a pretty simple app and I don't have time to dive into
performance tools to discover why a single thread in a 10-page app isn't
doing what it's advertised to do.

I'm not doing any work on the main thread while the spawned thread

behavior isn't really a responsiveness issue: the rest of the UI still
responds fine, but my indicators that I update in the UI do *nothing*
the entire time the spawned thread is running. Nothing. No activity.
If I take the sleep calls out, then main thread updates the UI
instantly upon termination of the spawned thread.
You said that you're calling the main thread, so I expect it to do
*something*...
How do you notify the controls in the UI that they need to update to
reflect new values?
What is the total time required to run the task by your worker thread?
