see if this thread is helpful:

I'm using this technique which boils down to reactor.callLater(0, 
recursive_function, args)

I also tried reactor.iterate()

(http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/api/twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorCore.html#iterate 
)

- although this prevented blocking for some reason it had some 
undesirable side effects with my app.
