# Per-object thread-local storage
Efficient per-object thread-local storage implementation.
Unlike `thread_local` crate, it will normally release the object at the end of thread.
even though it will release object in other threads, but it will not let other threads use old object
(see [playground](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=cb3153e9ef7793f192e7b905b3f5e6bb)
and [document](https://github.com/Amanieu/thread_local-rs/blob/34011020194908f3aa852cac59a83e81a325767e/src/lib.rs#L28)).
Unlike `os-thread-local` crate, it only uses the `std::thread_local!` abstraction of rust standard library,
and does not use any other platform-related APIs.
This means that its capacity is not limited by `PTHREAD_KEYS_MAX`.
And its performance is relatively good,
value access for less than `N` threads is completely lock-free, and has `O(1)` time complexity.
But since we store thread id in `std::thread_local!`, so we will be slightly slower than `std::thread_local!`.
