-------------------------------------
I tried to clarify the immutability properties of the linked list at r1790958
by explaining the difference between the linked list and the pointer to its
head.
> Cleanup blocks writers
> ----------------------
>
> Key: OAK-6052
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-6052
> Project: Jackrabbit Oak
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: segment-tar
> Reporter: Michael Dürig
> Assignee: Francesco Mari
> Labels: cleanup, gc
> Fix For: 1.7.0, 1.8
>
> Attachments: OAK-6052-reader-iterable.patch
>
>
> The refactoring from OAK-6002 moved the cleanup of the tar readers into the
> read lock, which blocks concurrent writers from progressing. This was a
> problem with {{oak-segment}} before and fixed with OAK-3329.
> As cleanup can take up to a couple of minutes on busy system we should
> re-establish the former behaviour.
