Thomas Vandahl commented on JCS-119:
------------------------------------

Several of these places should be tested carefully for actual performance 
gains. Patches are always welcome.

> replace synchronized blocks by java locks or concurrenhashmap

> A cache is typically used in a concurrent environment. Since Java 6 using a 
> ReentrantLock is faster than synchronized so can be interesting to replace 
> synchronized blocks by a lock.
> Places i'm thinking about:
> * CompositeCache
> * AbstractDoubleLinkedListMemoryCache
> * LHMLRUMemoryCache
> * DoubleLinkedList
> * LRUMap
> * SingleLinkedList
> * SortedPreferentialArray
> Some places where replacing a HashMap by a ConcurrentHashMap can allow to get 
> rid of synchronized without needing a lock:
> * CacheEventQueue
> * AbstractDiskCache
> * CacheWatchRepairable
> There are other places but this is the main I saw.
