-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
 The following code snippet freezes for the loop being executed 10000 times
 (0 % cpu usage and doesn't finish), but finishes for 1000 times. It should
 never freeze.

 #!/usr/bin/env macruby -w


 @unzipQueue = Dispatch::Queue.new('ch.unibe.niko.unzipQueue')
 def extractFile(n)
     @unzipQueue.sync do

     end
 end

 group = Dispatch::Group.new
 (1..10000).each { | project |
     Dispatch::Queue.concurrent.async(group) do
        extractFile(project)
     end
 }
 group.wait

 I'm not aware of a workable workaround.
