Thanks for the pointers.

I in fact do something similar.

My TTimer class has a class variable that is a dynamic array of TTimers.

When the program is going to wait for anything (a timer or a thread 
firing an event) it searches for the next timer to expire and uses the 
difference time as a waiting timeout.

I don't sort the list, as it would need to be re-sorted with any timer 
event. So I always need to do a linear search for the next Timer to expire.
