Hi Jasvinder,

the values of t->time_next_min is updated only when the pipeline message an=
d thread message get handled, but not when the pipeline is added to that th=
read. E.g. when a thread t->time_next_min is ~100ms later, and a new pipeli=
ne is added to that thread with timer_period_ms parameter set to 10ms, then=
 this pipeline's control message will not be served until 100ms later.

BRs,
Xiao
