Github user aljoscha commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2785 @StephanEwen I think it's not a problem that these physical, low-level timers don't fire in order of their timestamp because the ordering of timers is maintained in the implementation of `InternalTimerService` (in a queue in the current implementation). Also, under normal circumstances we only have one active timer at the `ProcessingTimeService` (`SystemProcessingTimeService`).
