The change reduces locking by using a ConcurrentLinkedQueue to store the different BlindingParameters that other threads maybe using.  The queue size is limited to prevent sudden surges in stored BlindingParameters and a WeakHashMap is still used so the objects can be freed when no longer used.  Performance doubles under high load.

I'd use a synchronizedMap here now
