Indeed, gentlemen Strieder and Dennett were right. The ONLY problem was in me iterating past the end(). Upon end()++, either this op or the comparison operator got locked in an endless loop that would eat all available CPU time.
Once I implemented my traversal loops the way these two gentlemen suggested, both set<> and map<> work precisely. No iterators are invalidated, except for the deleted one. As I said before, all my threading, timing and signals are now perfectly sane.
