Apologies if the initial report was unclear.  The issue isn't with the actual 
counts (which appear to be accurate), but that we are intermittently ending up 
with 2 keys in the same entry instead of one per entry.

This makes parsing the data very difficult, and I cannot determine a reason it 
would be doing this instead of putting each one in its own entry like it 
appears to do for almost all of the values until it has run for a while.

Subject: Re: [SR-Users] Strange behavior with $shtinc


Did you monitor the values of those statistics over the time? If yes, was there 
a moment when the value evolved unexpected?

Cheers,

Let me preface this with the statement that as best I can tell from docs and 
code, this function is supposed to be 100% atomic and this shouldn't be able to 
happen.  I also have not found anything in the module's github commit logs that 
would indicate this behavior has changed from previous versions.

That being said, I appear to have run into an oddity where intermittently I'm 
getting 2 slots being put in the same entry, which results in trying to parse 
the output for graphing and reporting not working quite right.  The mechanism 
I'm using is a very simple counter mechanism to record statistics about calls.  
As an example, I am using the following mechanism:

$var(z) = $shtinc(callstats=>$avp(realm),cps_exceeded);
or
$var(z) = $shtinc(callstats=>$avp(realm),sessions_exceeded);

This typically results in something like this:

{
        entry: 4335
        size: 1
        slot: {
                {
                        name: realm1,total_requests
                        value: 2365034
                        type: int
                }
        }
}
{
        entry: 4532
        size: 1
        slot: {
                {
                        name: realm2,cps_exceeded
                        value: 30
                        type: int
                }
        }
}
And so on...  However, one or more of them sometimes end up like this:

{
        entry: 4646
        size: 2
        slot: {
                {
                        name: realm1,total_requests
                        value: 15958026
                        type: int
                }
                {
                        name: realm2,cps_exceeded
                        value: 6432103
                        type: int
                }
        }
}

Thanks in advance for your help and/or suggestions!
