Back in 1981 autolocking and locking files existed, but you'd
have to be running basser's much hacked 32V.  It had resources
limits too.

By 1985 it had copy-on-write fork an 'fast' [one] context switches.

And kre thought 4.2BSD was fast...

IIRC think basse[rt] were 45% faster.

Of course, this took years of work by several people.
