As an aside, Krow and I had a long chat today about the various
bottlenecks that can occur when trying to do atomic CAS operation on

on scalable solutions to this problem...

Sorry for late response, Jay.

I have experimented a little with CAS on memcached, but nothing very advanced, I am afraid...

With the memcached team, I worked on scalability issues on the Niagara platform.

With the HADB team, we did some scalability work that involved mutexes and condition variables, but never had the time to make a truly scalable solution. One experience though was that in order to go from a single- to a multi-thread architecture, defining and implementing clear semantics in the code became even more important.

Thanks,
Roy
