A lovely doc popped up on Hacker News yesterday:

"Semaphores in Plan 9" by Sape Mullender and Russ Cox https://swtch.com/semaphore.pdf

Not much but a great textbook-level reminder on different synchronization mechanisms and their performance. The foundational one that people tend to forget about is P9's Rendezvous. So where's the Rama?
