If that means what I think it does, each time that happens, another timer is going to be set. It sounds like you're setting lots of timers, so the delay is somewhat irrelevant.

Strictly speaking, only one can. But what happens is that if you trigger a second one, the first one is interrupted until the second one has finished.

It's hard -- there's no silver bullet. That's another reason why I think you need to break up your app, and separate the processes.
Once you start having polling loops in your app, it gets complex. If that polling loop takes much time, you need to disable other stuff while it's running.
