i've been running the SOAK tests for over 7 days now without a problem.
if there is a bug in the collections code (as opposed to problems with
synchronization) then i don't think that it'll be discovered by those
tests. i can't see any reason for the code to fail when correctly
synchronized. so, i think it'd be best release as is and hope that (if
the problem exists) someone will donate some production code we can
run.  

what is becoming clear to me is that a number of users have been
confused by the need to synchronize the maps. i've added some
clarifications to the javadocs for LRUMap. 

would it be a good idea (for me) to add explicit notes about the need to
synchronize maps to other javadocs? and to the user guide?
 
BTW i get problems with jdiff (no CVSROOT) when i try maven
site:generate any tips?
