I was amazed at the instant "All runways available for landing" right after the Mayday call. That must cause some hectic activity
Not really. At the very most there would have been one other aircraft lining up for take-off and that could taxi clear in a minute. Any other aircraft on approach would have been vectored clear in no time at all. As you've seen ATC are very good at what they do.
