5 ;; Lispworks condition support is simulated, albeit via a lightweight wrapper over
6 ;; its own polling-based wait primitive. Waiters register with the condition variable,
7 ;; and use MP:process-wait which queries for permission to proceed at its own (usspecified) interval.
8 ;; http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/lw51/LWRM/html/lwref-445.htm
9 ;; A wakeup callback (on notify) is provided to lighten this query to not have to do a hash lookup
10 ;; on every poll (or have to serialize on the condition variable) and a mechanism is put
11 ;; in place to unregister any waiter that exits wait for other reasons,
12 ;; and to resend any (single) notification that may have been consumed before this (corner
13 ;; case). Much of the complexity present is to support single notification (as recommended in
14 ;; the spec); but a distinct condition-notify-all is provided for reference.
15 ;; Single-notification follows a first-in first-out ordering
16 ;;
17 ;; Performance: With 1000 threads waiting on one condition-variable, the steady-state hit (at least
18 ;; as tested on a 3GHz Win32 box) is noise - hovering at 0% on Task manager.
19 ;; While not true zero like a true native solution, the use of the Lispworks native checks appear
20 ;; fast enough to be an equivalent substitute (thread count will cause issue before the
21 ;; waiting overhead becomes significant)
