- "`Reuse an expert's code' is the right advice for most people.
- But it's a useless advice for the experts writing the code
- in the first place. -- Dan J. Bernstein
-
- Design Goals:
- o allows low-level adjustments of data structures
- o uses a general contexts concept (shared memory support, user attachments)
- o is thread-safe + reentrant ?
- o allows the use of arbitrary user key/values
- o allows key/values to be loans or gifts
