You can now download the new coalescingRingBuffer-1.1.3.jar and coalescingRingBuffer-1.1.3-src.zip.
Improvements:
size() method now ensures a consistent view of both the producer and consumer positions see http://psy-lob-saw.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/concurrent-bugs-size-matters.html for details A special thanks to Stanimir Simeonoff, Nitsan Wakart and Martin Thompson for discovering and suggesting fixes for this issue!

You can now download the new coalescingRingBuffer-1.1.0.jar and coalescingRingBuffer-1.1.0-src.zip.
Improvements:
4% performance improvement by using lazy sets where possible constructor now rounds up capacity to the nearest higher power of two instead of throwing an exception nextRead index has been renamed firstWrite for clarity

The Coalescing Ring Buffer is the first component of the LMAX Collections Library we are open-sourcing today. It is a component that we have written in Java to efficiently buffer messages between a producer and a consumer thread where only the latest value for a given topic is of interest. All other messages can be discarded immediately.
The Problem of Market Data Let’s imagine we are trying to write an automated trading system that listens to all stock price updates on an exchange in order to find under-valued stocks.
