hey this might be a stupid detail in implementation, but if the poisson simulation of arrival and completion are started cold, then random assignment of events could assign a completion before an arrival, or there could be more completions than arrivals? Arrivals should always be greater or equal to completions?

Edit: I remembered by stats class. merging poisson distributions requires Independent processes. since start and completion are dependent, its not mathematically valid.

but I am an engineer and it works, so whatever

discuss
