In certain places, I have changed the code from something like `(instant1 < instant2)` to `(instant1 - instant2 < 0)` It might look like I am removing instant2 from both sides of the inequality and the result ought to be the same, but due to overflow arithmetic, the change should be better if nanoseconds where to overflow. I have also removed some loops where the loop is doing nothing except sleeping. I somewhat shortened the string in the key of a hash map because the nanosecond value made the string too long for the heap size.

Okay.
