/// may be called multiple times by threads racing to initialize the value.
/// Do not rely on the closure being called only one time.

  /// this value is requested, then the closure will be called and its resulting
  /// value will be atomically compare-exchanged into the cache.
  /// If multiple threads access the value before initialization, they will all
  /// end up returning the correct, initialized value.

  ///                     inside the cache.
