Can we test an object that needs initialization and teardown?

Thank you for reproduction steps. I've run your tests and am getting same
results. For 5 iterations, there's always 50 constructor calls not matched
by @Arbiter.

I've found that extra instances are being created by jcstress after the
actual tests, in 'jcstress_consume' and 'jcstress_updateHolder' methods.

I guess using constructor / @Arbiter, instead of @Setup/@TearDown, won't do.

Definitely.

@Aleksey: I have some working code that would solve this issue. With some
polishing, I could upload a patch here - would you be interested in adding
such features to jcstress?

Thanks, JK
