>
> * Under heavy contention, we guard modifications to a partition with a mutex, for the lifetime of the memtable.
> * Memtables block for the completion of all {{OpOrder.Group}} started before their flush began
> * Memtables permit operations from this cohort to fall-through to the following Memtable, in order to guarantee a precise commitLogUpperBound
> * Memtable memory limits may be lifted for operations in the first cohort, since they block flush (and hence block future memory allocation)
> With very unfortunate scheduling
> * A contended partition may rapidly escalate to a mutex
> * The system may reach memory limits that prevent allocations for the new Memtable’s cohort (C2) 
> * An operation from C2 may hold the mutex when this occurs
> * Operations from a prior Memtable’s cohort (C1), for a contended partition, may fall-through to the next Memtable
> * The operations from C1 may execute after the above is encountered by those from C2
