Mehrdad Nurolahzade commented on AURORA-1820:
---------------------------------------------
I am seeing multiple times wait time to acquire the storage write lock
({{log_storage_write_lock_wait}}) than it takes to perform the work while
holding it ({{db_storage_write_operation}}). I am guessing by reducing the
locking frequency (where possible) we might yield improved performance.
Task timeouts is not special in any sense; it's just a low hanging fruit.

> {{TimedOutTaskHandler}} acquires storage write lock for every task every time
> they transition to a transient state. It then verifies after a default
> time-out period of 5 minutes if the task has transitioned out of the
> transient state.
> The verification step takes place while holding the storage write lock. In
> over 99% of cases the logic short-circuits and returns from
> {{StateManagerImpl.updateTaskAndExternalState()}} once it learns task has
> transitioned out of the transient state.
> Reduce storage write lock contention by adopting [Double-Checked
> Locking|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-checked_locking] pattern in
> {{TimedOutTaskHandler.run()}}.
