@StephanEwen I think it's not a problem that these physical, low-level
timers don't fire in order of their timestamp because the ordering of timers is
maintained in the implementation of `InternalTimerService` (in a queue in the
current implementation). Also, under normal circumstances we only have one
active timer at the `ProcessingTimeService` (`SystemProcessingTimeService`).
