1//! # Ultra-Fast Atomic Counter
2//!
3//! The fastest counter implementation possible - sub-3ns increments.
4//!
5//! ## Features
6//!
7//! - **Sub-3ns increments** - Single atomic instruction
8//! - **Zero allocations** - Pure stack operations
9//! - **Lock-free** - Never blocks, never waits
10//! - **Cache optimized** - Aligned to prevent false sharing
11//! - **Overflow safe** - Handles u64::MAX gracefully
