Hi Paul,
Thanks to your addition in Chapter 9, it is getting more and more
convincing.
However, the X-axis label in Figures 9.5, 9.9, and 9.16 is
"Number of CPUs/Threads."
At first glance, I read it as "Number of CPUs per Threads."
It took a few seconds for me to realize that it means
"Number of CPUs or Threads."
In Figure 4.10, the x-axis label is "Number of CPUs (Threads)."
I think this is better to avoid ambiguity.
What do you think?
Thanks, Akira

Glad you like them! A little more to go...

Sold!!! ;-)
Made this change with your Signed-off-by.
Thanx, Paul

Hi,
So, I searched "CPUs/Threads" in the pdf and 10 other labels hit.
See the list below. (Sorry, but with page numbers of 2 column pdf.)
* p.38 Figure 5.3
* p.77 Figure 6.22
* p.78 Figure 6.23 and in the text just below
* p.166 Figures 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9
* p.168 Figures 10.13 and 10.14
* p.169 Figure 10.15
* p.177 Figure 10.29
These figures existed before your recent rewrite of Chapter 9,
and I never found them ambiguous. So I might have been on a
different planet last night or something...
If you think it is still better to modify them, please consider
doing so.
There is another "CPUs/Threads" in p.437 at the definition of
"Linearizable," but it is not at all ambiguous in the context.
Thanks, Akira

Might as well... Done!

Fixed that one as well.
And added glossary.tex to the Makefile dependency list. ;-)
Thanx, Paul
