Distributed Lock version 1.0

[aminer]

Hello,

Finally i have implemented my Distributed Lock, i think it's
good now cause it reduces the cache-coherence traffic and it is
much fair than the Windows critical section.

Description:

A scalable distributed Lock, it is as fast as the Windows critical section but it is much fair than the Windows critical section and the SpinLock with exponential backoff, and it reduces the cache-coherence traffic.

Please take a look a the test.pas Object Pascal demo inside the zipfile, compile and run it...

Hello,

I said that my Distributed Lock is much fair than the Windows critical section and much fair than the SpinLock with expoenential backoff,
a proof of that ? just run the test.pas ,test1.pas and test2.pas
inside the zipfile and you will notice it.


Other than that you can use a Waitfree queue and it will be much efficient than that.
