I'm doing a bit of work to straighten out the template, hopefully without causing a measurable performance regression. Hao's test code is a bit of a corner-case: there is exactly one record in the database which the code thrashes as hard as possible.

Hao, I noticed the same behavior when stress-testing the multi thread session handling for the ACL plugin a while ago. I thought this trade off is there to avoid having to do the hard locks in bihash code, rather than it being a bug. As you say - the special value comes only if the deletion is in progress, and it is always the same. So I just treated that case in my code same as “not found”. My logic was: if an entry is just in process of being deleted, there is very little use for its old value anyway. --a > On 15 Mar 2023, at 14:45, Hao Tian > <tianhao...@outlook.com<mailto:tianhao...@outlook.com>> wrote: > > Hi, > > I tried but could not come up with any way that is able to ensure the kvp > being valid upon return without using the full bucket lock. > > Maybe we can make a copy of the value before returning, validate the copy and > return that copy instead.
