Benedict Elliott Smith commented on CASSANDRA-16681:
----------------------------------------------------
Well, {{volatile}} by itself is probably insufficient, as we can have a race
condition where all three chunks have been freed by another thread but not yet
cleared from the queue, and the owning thread needs to clear an entry and
insert a new one. So we either have to have a yield spin (in which case we
don't even need {{volatile}}, we can use plain memory accesses), or we need to
use CAS for clearing (which I marginally prefer, as I dislike yield spins, even
if it comes at a cost of increased volatile usage)
> org.apache.cassandra.utils.memory.LongBufferPoolTest - tests are flaky
