> Multi-thread concurrency issue
> During our concurrency testing, we observed NullPointer exceptions being
> thrown when two people hit the same page at the same time for the first time.
> Upon further investigation, it turns out that we need to synchronize the init
> method on ASTDirective, ASTSetDirective, and render method on
> ASTSetDirective, and VelocimacroProxy.
> Basically, the problem is introduced as the following; when two threads
> attempts to parse and render the same template at the same time. Thread1
> finishes parsing first and proceeds to the render method call, while thread 2
> is still busy parsing and will overwrite the existing parse tree that is
> being used by thread 1 for rendering purpose. Thus under certainly condition
> a NullPointer exception will be thrown.
