Hi Robert,

Sorry I did not understand your point completely.
I have a global variable patterndb on C side and It is getting called from
a single goroutine every 3 mins. Why do I need to synchronize it?
Even though the goroutine gets pinned to different threads, it can access
the same global variable every time and free it ...right ?

Thanks,
Nitish
