Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettin...@gmail.com> added the comment:

The docs already note a restriction: "the shelve module does not support 
concurrent read/write access to shelved objects".  We should further document 
that sync() is not thread-safe.  When sync() is running, the *writeback* 
attribute is set to False and other threads will stop updating the cache.
