If the ready messages in pending messages is never empty, event messages
are not processed. (By ready, I mean time-stamped for before or at now.)
This can happen at (perhaps abnormal) heavy processing loads.
It also makes it harder to write efficient background tasks.
I don't think newbies need worry about these. I mention that because of
the original question.
