I see no other option than to have another container of mutexes: one mutex per element. Is there anything else I can do?
With this solution the threading cannot be orthogonal. Or I'm missing something?
Not sure if this is of use to your particular problem but I've been doing some research recently on thread safe data structures, try searching on "concurrent data structures" in the ACM digital library if you have access.
