If script 1 is the main script which can be paused by script 2 then you 
could do something like this:

local sScript1MsgID = 0
local sData   = "My Data to be processed"
on script1
        -- PROCESS CHUNK OF DATA
        --> PROCESS NEXT CHUNK OF DATA
        send "script1" to me in 0 seconds
        put result() into sScript1MsgID
end script1
on script2
        if sScript1MsgID > 0 then cancel sScript1MsgID
        --> DO WHATEVER I NEED TO
        --> GET SCRIPT1 GOING AGAIN
        script1
end script2
Script1 just does the data processing in small chunks.  At any time 
script2 can cancel the current call to script1 which stops it from 
executing the next time around.  It then does whatever it needs to and 
then restarts script1.  Would this work in your case?
