The non-GUI task will not yeild the CPU to Zinc. Is the system idle
or is the non-GUI (or a higher priority) task running?

Did you explicitly redraw in the Zinc code that is handling the event?
Are you sure that the GUI task is taking 3 seconds to execute or is
this when you see the screen updated?
