I assumed the scheduler would be using a heap to prioritize scheduled tasks, and that wouldn't preserve the order of submitted tasks with the same scheduled time. Since `System.currentTimeMillis()` doesn't tick regularly enough I can see you could have the two threads end up with the same scheduled time of execution (now), but execute in the wrong order. Obviously the FIFO queue approach would solve that, at the cost of an extra thread. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
