Are you referring to the usages for which we decided to
recommend (pasting from javadoc...)


  * <p>A ConcurrentHashMap can be used as scalable frequency map (a
  * form of histogram or multiset) by using {@link
  * java.util.concurrent.atomic.LongAdder} values and initializing via
  * {@link #computeIfAbsent computeIfAbsent}. For example, to add a count
  * to a {@code ConcurrentHashMap<String,LongAdder> freqs}, you can use
  * {@code freqs.computeIfAbsent(k -> new LongAdder()).increment();}
