Last time I tested, I think I just looped calling Application.ProcessMessages 
and waited for TOTAEvaluateResult.EvaluateCompleted to change, but that was 
around the Delphi 6/7 era.  I don't remember it taking any longer than the 
watch/evaluate dialogs take to evaluate variables.  I don't remember testing 
Sleep.  I think the IDE's evaluation method call has to be done in the 
context of another thread sometimes, which is the reason erDeferred exists - 
so it can swap context and return the result to you.
