>
> When we want to snapshot timers with the keyed backend state, this must
> happen as part of an asynchronous snapshot.
> The data structure {{InternalTimerHeap}} needs to offer support for this
> through a lightweight copy mechanism (e.g. arraycopy of the timer queue,
> because timers are immutable w.r.t. serialization).
> We can also stop keeping the dedup maps in {{InternalTimerHeap}} separated by
> key-group, all timers can go into one map.
> Instead, we can implement online-partitioning as part of the asynchronous
> operation, similar to what we do in {{CopyOnWriteStateTable}} snapshots.
> Notice that in this intermediate state, the code will still run in the
> synchronous part until we are integrated with the backends for async
> snapshotting (next subtask of this jira).
