// This is a concurrent hash-based set for pointers. It's optimized for:
//
// - High rate of contains() calls.
// - High rate of add() calls that don't add anything new. add() calls that don't add anything (nop adds)
//   don't mutate the table at all.
// - Not too many threads. I doubt this scales beyond ~4. Though, it may actually scale better than that
//   if the rate of nop adds is absurdly high.
//
// If we wanted this to scale better, the main change we'd have to make is how this table determines when
// to resize. Right now it's a shared counter. We lock;xadd this counter. One easy way to make that
// scalable is to require each thread that works with the ConcurrentPtrHashSet to register itself first.
// Then each thread would have some data structure that has a counter. We could institute the policy that
// each thread simply increments its own load counter, in its own data structure. Then, if any search to
// resolve a collision does more than N iterations, we can compute a combined load by summing the load
// counters of all of the thread data structures.
//
// ConcurrentPtrHashSet's main user, the GC, sees a 98% nop add rate in Speedometer. That's why this
// focuses so much on cases where the table does not change.
