//! Many threads increment one shared counter through the database. Each
//! increment is a read-modify-write transaction that retries when it loses a
//! commit race, so no update is ever lost: the final value equals the exact
//! number of increments issued.
//!
//! Run with: `cargo run --example concurrent_counter`
