 I have only one writer thread and one reader thread (1 group, 2 threads
with different roles, as planned). Buffer is per-group (in per-group
state). So, everything should work. This is not 100% reproducible.
Sometimes JMH runs 5 warmup and 10 measurement iterations without
problem, and sometimes I got my exception on 3-4 warmup iteration (never
at first, but, as it is not-deterministic, maybe it is pure luck).

 I'll try to compile minimal example where I got this.

 Maybe, problem is that EVERY thread-local state setup is called at
EVERY thread? I've tried to construct benchmark in such way, that reader
and writer needs different states and I've hoped, that JMH will not
setup thread-local state which is not needed by this particular thread,
so I could distinguish between "reader" and "writer" threads, what I
need, because these threads need different setup. Are my assumptions
correct?
