rw_lease
Fast Reader-Writer lock with reader draining support. Based on a single (parameterisable) atomic usize.
Notes:
- Steals the high bit for the writer lock.
- Designed for low contention, mostly-read workloads.
- Write locking requires waiting for readers to drop their locks.
Benchmarks
There are benchmarks, which you can and should run. Here are some numbers from my 2015 macbook pro on an AtomicUsize (the default):
| Benchmark | Mutex | RwLock | RWLease |
|---|---|---|---|
| Create | 110 | 107 | 1 |
| Uncontended Reads | 330731 (1.4) | 417664 (1.77) | 235656 (1) |
| Contended Reads | 1140321 (1) | 2367186 (2.08) | 1488557 (1.31) |
Notes: measurements in nanoseconds, parens = normalised to shortest run.
We haven't spent terribly long optimising the code, there may be some wins left to gain.
