Benjamin Reed commented on ZOOKEEPER-59:
----------------------------------------

There are actually two things to guard here: the outstandingBuffers and the 
selector loop.

In read request, we really just need:

          synchronized (this) {
                outstandingRequests++;
          }

In sendResponse we need to synchronize on this for outstandingRequests and on 
factory for the selector:

        synchronized (this) {
                outstandingRequests--;
        }

        synchronized (this.factory) {
                // check throttling
                if (zk.getInProcess() < factory.outstandingLimit
                        || outstandingRequests < 1) {
                    sk.selector().wakeup();
                    enableRecv();
                }
            }

I don't think the synchronize block is needed in doIO. The SectionKey methods 
are supposed to be thread safe.

I think you might have found something! If the outstandingRequests count gets 
messed up, bad things will happen including the server becoming unresponsive to 
a client.

> I think the second one is correct, and the first synchronized block should be 
> guarded by "this.factory". 
> This could be related to issue ZOOKEEPER-57, but I have no concrete 
> indication that this is the case so far.
