Order processing

I would like to know how MT4 terminal order processing works.
As far as I know MT4 terminal can process up to 8 orders at 1 time (open, close, edit order)
and what happens if 50 robots are opened in the terminal and they want to do something at the same time?
are the first 8 orders processed and others ignored or executed, are they only processed in line order?

Context busy errors. Either check or use a mutex.
