Yes, and you discovered a reason why: The code might inadvertently make use of 
shared (or static) variables that can cause problems with multiple threads :-)

Yes.  I have just installed a new version (2023-01-11) of the code that moves 
the ’token counter’ to be a field of the ’task scheduler’ object, so that it 
will no longer be shared by multiple threads.  This should avoid this problem.

Thanks for the report.
