Excellent post thanks. stinkronize is such a backstabber, here is my common
sequence of events with Synchronize:

First I use it because it seems nice, friendly, handling the job. Then some
day the weirdest, impossible bug pops up, first I blame anything else -tcp
buffers <g>, OS, the compiler, any library used... I spend countless time
in debugger till that *aha* moment comes, fix the bug with tricks and
hacks. After all, when it refactor time, I switch to asynchronous
mechanisms. <happy ending>
