The new storage (MetaMap) is based on direct shadow (instead of a hashmap + per-block lists).
This solves a number of problems:
- eliminates quadratic behaviour in SyncTab::GetAndLock (https://code.google.com/p/thread-sanitizer/issues/detail?id=26)
- eliminates contention in SyncTab
- eliminates contention in internal allocator during allocation of sync objects
- removes a bunch of ad-hoc code in java interface
- reduces java shadow from 2x to 1/2x
- allows to memorize heap block meta info for Java and Go
- allows to cleanup sync object meta info for Go
- which in turn enabled deadlock detector for Go
