It seems to me that you've jumped to proposing solutions before you know
where the problem actually is --- or at least, if you do know where the
problem is, you didn't explain it. Is the cost in repeating clog
lookups, or in testing to determine whether it's safe to set the bit
yet, or is it contention associated with one or the other of those?
