I don't know which is the best item to work on, but I can go ahead and work on the best 3, 4, or however many the CPU can handle at once. It may lead to a situation where an item is evaluated when it wouldn't have if I had gone sequentially, but that would be rare and the speedup from running in parallel would be more beneficial.

Richard, Thank you for your reply, but that will not work for me. I have to apologize as my original post was not that clear on my intent. I have added more description to help with that. Essentially, I do not want to work on every item in the list, which is why the sorting is important. With that I cannot use the ConcrurrentQueue will not work as I cannot insert items into it. I realize that the List class is slow and that is next on my list to make more efficient, but for now that is the best I can do. I plan on being able to use the list as I only access it on the main thread and not in any of the worker threads.

Also, thank you for pointing out the error in the code. That has been fixed.
