these concepts have been around in this community (and others) for
years. i suspect that it is more than a decade since the folks at
GRAME published their paper on lock free data structures (used in
MidiShare), and its probably a decade or more since LAD first
discussed lock free (single-read/single-writer) ringbuffers. there's
nothing wrong with having new eyes and new ideas but i couldn't see
anything from a casual glance in that paper that hasn't been
documented and used by people on this list for a long time.
