When using the overload of QCoreApplication::processEvents that takes a
maxtime argument, the function will keep processing events until there
are no more events, or until it times out.
The problem is that the function doesn't distinguish between events that
were on the event queue when the function was called, and events generated
by processing events as part of its own execution. If for example a widget
calls update() in its paintEvent, the function will spin for the entire
duration of maxtime.
That doesn't work for qWaitFor, where we need to check the predicate
between each pass, so we use the overload of processEvents that doesn't
take a maxtime. That's fine, as we have our own timeout logic.
