Solving the ABA Problem in Rust with Tagged Pointers


Solving the ABA Problem in Rust: Tagged Pointers with Versioning

bench_single_threaded_push_pop: Time: ~186 nanoseconds per iteration Explanation: This benchmark measures how long it takes to perform a push followed by a pop in a single thread. bench_concurrent_push_pop: Time: ~5 nanoseconds per iteration Explanation: This benchmark measures only the pop operation while a separate thread continuously pushes values onto the stack. Although this method can be more complex to implement and may rely on specific hardware capabilities, it excels in performance-critical environments by minimizing synchronization overhead and safeguarding data integrity.
