------------------------------------
Note that his also impacts compaction as this is just another thread writing to
the repository.
> FileStore lock contention with concurrent writers
> -------------------------------------------------

> Key: OAK-3330
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-3330
> Project: Jackrabbit Oak
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: segmentmk
> Reporter: Michael Dürig
> Assignee: Michael Dürig
> Labels: compaction
>
> Concurrently writing to the file store can lead to a sever lock contention in
> {{FileStore#readSegment}}. That method searches the current {{TarWriter}}
> instance for the segment once it could not be found in any of the
> {{TarReader}} instances. This is the point where synchronizes on the
> {{FileStore}} instance, which leads to the contention.
> The effect is only observable once the segment cache becomes full and reads
> actually need to go to the file store. Thus a possible improvement could be
> to pin segments from the current tar writer to the cache. Alternatively we
> could try to ease locking by employing read/write locks where possible.
