There is another thing that I can do here. I can simply set the delay as an 
exponential decay function of the fraction of hard links used. I wonder if any 
of these solutions would make the problem go away completely. It might reduce 
the frequency of this particular situational error though. However, I do not 
understand exactly why the delay was introduced in the first place. Was it to 
avoid spawning a lot of processes at the same time?
