Not entirely true. I was never able to successfully test his code because
his server crashed and he wasn't willing to let me test further. I've asked
him to send me distribution tree of his code so that I can run the tests
locally, as I'll be doing with yours.

Some of them are the natural consequences of managing a priority queue.
Others are just bugs that he can fix. There is a limit to what he can do
about the contention issues.
The real issues are those that we've explained regarding the approach
(algorithm). We've both explained the issues, quoted sources, shown the
math. I suspect that I can't put enough load on a socket limited Win2K
system to demonstrate the resource contention, especially through my cable
modem, but that doesn't change the math. Frankly, I don't want to keep
going over this territory. Let's just put both implementations under the
Watchdog interface, so that we can resolve this issue by allowing him to use
the implementation that he wants to use.
