+/**
+  A wrapper for std::atomic, defaulting to std::memory_order_relaxed.
+
+  When it comes to atomic loads or stores at std::memory_order_relaxed
+  on IA-32 or AMD64, this wrapper is only introducing some constraints
+  to the C++ compiler, to prevent some optimizations of loads or
+  stores.
+
+  On POWER and ARM, atomic loads and stores involve different instructions
+  from normal loads and stores and will thus incur some overhead.
+
+  Because atomic read-modify-write operations will always incur
+  overhead, we intentionally do not define
+  operator++(), operator--(), operator+=(), operator-=(), or similar,
+  to make the overhead stand out in the users of this code.
