plugin update() executed inline in the render loop — execute_update's internal thread.join(timeout=30) blocked it, so one slow plugin HTTP fetch froze scrolling for the whole fetch (up to 30s; DNS-retry storms made this a regular occurrence on flaky networks). Scheduling stays on the render thread and keeps every existing gate (enabled, circuit breaker, can_execute, interval); due updates are now enqueued to a single background worker (serialized — same one-at-a-time execution as before, no thundering herd). RUNNING is set at enqueue so can_execute blocks re-entry alongside the pending-set dedup. Per-plugin locks make the old implicit update/display no-overlap guarantee explicit: the worker holds the plugin's lock through its update; the display side try-locks and, when the plugin is mid-update, holds the last frame for that iteration — reported as success so a mid-update skip never advances the rotation. Unlike before, the guarantee now also holds across the post-timeout window (previously the lingering update thread overlapped display()). Deadlock-free by construction: the worker takes one lock; display never blocks. Timeout semantics unchanged (lingering daemon thread documented). Kill switch: plugin_system.synchronous_updates: true restores the inline path. 8 new concurrency tests (non-blocking scheduler, overlap assertion under a hammering display loop, lock release on failure/timeout paths, dedup, kill switch); 4-min devpi soak clean (updates completing, rotation advancing, no stuck RUNNING states).
