Ignore what everyone else says on this list topic. ha.
Use a ReentrantReadWriteLock from JDK 1.5. There's a backport to JDK 1.4 out on the net. Google for "backport concurrent oswego" or something
Then you can do a
lock.readLock().lock()
on our gets and then do a writeLock on your puts. the writeLock will backup the readlock but if you only have readlocks they can all happen at once.
Normally though its not too big a deal since gets() on a hashtable are O(1)....
