In your code each message is passed on via a freshly spawned process. 
Erlang only guarantees message order between pairs of processes. What 
you have will work most of the time, particularly when message rates are 
low, but there is no guarantee.

The reading of the previous timeout and writing of the new timeout 
happen in different transactions. So multiple concurrent publishers 
could all read the same value.
