 * 1. The delayed callback is dispatched to the worker queue. So it is only
 *    dequeued when all prior callbacks have been dequeued.
 *
 * 2. When the callback is first dequeued by a worker, sample the counter of all
 *    workers. Once all counters have advanced, the callback is ready.
 *
 * 3. Check regularly if the callback is ready by adding it back to the dispatch
