> # {{FSEditLog.logSync()}} first waits until {{isSyncRunning}} is false and
> then performs syncing to file streams by calling
> {{EditLogOutputStream.flush()}}.
> If an exception is thrown after {{isSyncRunning}} is set to {{true}} all
> threads will always wait on this condition.
> An {{IOException}} may be thrown by {{EditLogOutputStream.setReadyToFlush()}}
> or a {{RuntimeException}} may be thrown by {{EditLogOutputStream.flush()}} or
> by {{processIOError()}}.
> # The loop that calls {{eStream.flush()}} for multiple
> {{EditLogOutputStream}}-s is not synchronized, which means that another
> thread may encounter an error and modify {{editStreams}} by say calling
> {{processIOError()}}. Then the iterating process in {{logSync()}} will break
> with {{IndexOutOfBoundException}}.
