I have written an application which does lots of calculation on huge floating point numbers that makes the UI not responsive at all most of the time.

I am thinking of adding a status bar to this application and show some info about cpu load, used memory and a progress bar. Consider adding labels and progress bar to the statusbar as childs, how can I run this status bar on a separate thread which can be reliable to be responsive as much as possible?

I can already use progress bars and system diagnosting stuff normally. What I am looking for is your ideas and tips, possibly with some codes!

Update

I want the status bar shows real time cpu and memory details. How to workaround this?

    You’ve got this the wrong way round. You should run all the UI in the same thread, and run the long calculation in a background worker. Trying to run UI in different threads within the same app just leads to pain.
