Subject: Re: [PATCH v4] eliminate mutex in fast path of __register_frame

yes, that is possible. The main problem is the transition from lazy to 
non-lazy mode when the first exception is thrown. We must somehow stop 
the world for that without introducing an additional mutex. But I have 
though about that some more, and that is possible too, by encoding a 
magic value as version during the transition, which causes the other 
threads to block. A bit ugly, but manageable. I will implement that in a 
few days.

Independent of that I think we should improve the sort logic, as we 
still have to sort, even in lazy mode, at latest when the first 
exception is thrown. I have send a patch that significantly improves 
that step.

Best

Thomas
