Comment (by umccullough):

 If the yab code expects things to run in a certain order (scheduler-
 related issue), then the code should be set to do so properly. It sounds
 as if there is some race condition in code that needs proper locking.

 Saying "it's not a yab issue" because you added a delay, or it worked on a
 previous version is simply ignorance of proper multithreading code.

 In short - if it's magically "fixed" now after further scheduler tweaking,
 it's probably going to break again in the future.
