kamailio is using unixtime for registrations, not relative time.

But the timer callbacks are using relative intervals to know when to be
executed (e.g., timer callbacks are defined to be executed like very 1
minute, or every 90 seconds). It may be that some of the timers try to
catch up on missed intervals.

It is strange that you say no sip traffic is processed. Can you simulate
again the situation and get the backtrace with gdb from few sip workers?
If your traffic is over udp, then do 'kamctl ps', get the pid of
processes with index 1, 2 and 3, then use gdb to attach to those PIDs
and grab the output of:
