------------------------------------
[~dulceanu], tentatively assigned to you as it might make sense to take this up
again in the context of your work towards better commit scheduling strategies.
> (Slightly) prioritise reads over writes

> When fetching the current root from the {{SegmentNodeStore}} an older
> revision will be returned when a commit is being processed concurrently. I
> think it would make sense to wait for a short time in this case increasing
> the chance of returning an up to date state. The idea is that this would
> lower the rebasing work that need to be done later on should the returned
> root be used for further modifications.
> An interesting value for the wait time is to use the median (or more general
> a percentile) of the commit time of the last say 1000 commits. This would
> mean that (for the median) we have a 50% chance of getting up to date date.
> For a 90% percentile we would have longer wait times but then a 90% chance of
> getting up to date date.
