Adrian Crum commented on OGNL-20:
---------------------------------
Two of the approaches in the patch will have concurrency issues, only the one
using ConcurrentHashMap will provide reliable results.
> Performance - Replace synchronized blocks with ReentrantReadWriteLock

> I've noticed a lot of synchronized blocks of code in OGNL. For the most part,
> these synchronized blocks are controlling access to HashMaps, etc. I believe
> this could be done far better using ReentrantReadWriteLocks.
> ReentrantReadWriteLock allows unlimited concurrent access, and single threads
> only for writes. Perfect in an environment where the ratio of reads is far
> higher than writes; which is typically the scenario for caching. Plus the
> access control can be tuned for reads and writes; not just a big
> synchronized{} wrapping a bunch of code.
