  25  * When you have many workers (threads/servers) giving service, and a
  26  * cached item expensive to produce expires, you may get several workers
  27  * doing the job at the same time.
  28  *
  29  * Given enough requests and the item expiring fast (non-cacheable,
  30  * lots of edits...) that single work can end up unfairly using most (all)
  31  * of the cpu of the pool. This is also known as 'Michael Jackson effect'
  32  * since this effect triggered on the english wikipedia on the day Michael
  33  * Jackson died, the biographical article got hit with several edits per
  34  * minutes and hundreds of read hits.
  35  *
  36  * The PoolCounter provides semaphore semantics for restricting the number
  37  * of workers that may be concurrently performing such single task. Only one
  38  * key can be locked by any PoolCounter instance of a process, except for keys
  39  * that start with "nowait:". However, only 0 timeouts (non-blocking requests)
  40  * can be used with "nowait:" keys.
  41  *
  42  * By default PoolCounter_Stub is used, which provides no locking. You
  43  * can get a useful one in the PoolCounter extension.
