Yonik and Robert, thanks for the suggestions and pointer to the patch! We've looked at the synchronization involved with finalizers and don't see how it could cause the issue as running the finalizers themselves is outside the lock. The code inside the lock is simple fixed-time list manipulation, not even a loop. On the other hand, we don't see how anything else could cause the problem either.
We'll try the patch and let everybody know if it resolves the issue. Getting rid of the finalizer will hopefully at least circumvent the problem. Thanks!
