What would be really useful is a lock-free *multiple-writers*, single-reader FIFO message queue. An implementation of a message- passing concurrent language uses this kind of queue for all communication between processes, and would benefit from an implementation with very low overhead on multiprocessors. The queue entries have to be traceable by a GC. -- David Hopwood .
