Yeah, might be. One idea is to put it under mutex_lock. Interesting
what kind of performance difference it'd make, e.g. [1] but would need
some combined approach. Also was thinking for getting rid of hashing at
all for polling fixed files, may be promising, but would need some extra
bits for fixed files removal.
