This revision now requires changes to proceed.
I agree with the general consensus that we should only make this change if it's

Unfortunately I don't reca

Is there a benchmark where this demonstrates some performance improvement? I
fear that the switch to condition_variable_any will swamp any performance gains
from the switch to a spin lock.
Also, the spin lock is being held during allocating operations (the exception
