STM advice

[Scott L. Burson]

There is CL-STM.  I haven't tried it, though, and know little about it.

If you do find a good STM library, you'll want a functional collections
library to go with it.  This is for the same reason that Clojure uses
functional collections: you don't want to have to go outside the STM
framework to update collection-valued slots of objects.  Permit me to
suggest FSet: http://common-lisp.net/project/fset/

It is Quicklisp-loadable: (ql:quickload "fset")
