    Any objections to committing this patch folks? @hsaputra you mentioned over 
on [GORA-228]() that ..."my proposal is to remove the static reference of the 
MemStore by having multiple MemStores instances that could be used in different 
threads as mentioned by @renato2099  in the previous comment. We fixed the 
ConcurrentModificationException by doing this."
    Do you want to implement this or tackle this in a different issue if and 
when it arises. Right now it seems that we just need to fix the Jira issue, not 
add functionality for something which may occur in the future. wdyt?

> I believe that the final failure is due to to the use of TreeMap [5] as a 
> private object in MemStore. TreeMap implementations are not synchronized. If 
> multiple threads access a map concurrently, and at least one of the threads 
> modifies the map structurally, it must be synchronized externally. (A 
> structural modification is any operation that adds or deletes one or more 
> mappings; merely changing the value associated with an existing key is not a 
> structural modification.) This is typically accomplished by synchronizing on 
> some object that naturally encapsulates the map. If no such object exists, 
> the map should be "wrapped" using the Collections.synchronizedSortedMap 
> method. This is best done at creation time, to prevent accidental 
> unsynchronized access to the map e.g.
>    SortedMap m = Collections.synchronizedSortedMap(new TreeMap(...));
> N.B. The NOTE on TreeMap's come right from the Oracle JavaDoc.
