However, you might be able to spot something +else that could be improved while looking into this. + +If after trying for a while you haven't found anything easy enough to improve +in the locking-related code, talk to us about some alternative exercise task. +Perhaps you actually find something you could do while looking through the bug +tracker or trying stuff yourself in search of locking issues :-) |
