/* This is an atomic integer abstract data type, for high-performance tracking of a single stat. It intentionally permits inconsistent atomic operations and reads, for better performance. This means that, though no data should ever be lost by this stat, reads of it at any time may not include all changes up to any particular point. So, values read from these may only be approximately correct. If your use-case will fail under these conditions, do not use this.
