You are seeing STM transaction restarts in action It looks like you are assuming that STM will serialise your transactions like, say, RDBMS transactions, on a first come first served basis with subsequent transactions blocked until the current one is complete? If this is your assumption, it's not correct I'm afraid. You must write the body of the dosync such that it can run multiple times, each run starting with a different (but consistent) view of the ref universe. Without more nitty gritty it's difficult to know more. Possibly a queue is a better fit here? Have you considered using one from java.util.concurrent ? -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
