    Instead of synchronizing, would using ReentrantReadWriteLock work? Commented Oct 9, 2012 at 8:35
  • Yes. ReentrantRreadWriteLock is more powerful then synchronized methods/statements. Using synchronized(items) in Producers will make Producers wait for each other when putting items, thus putting them in turns. You can avoid such situation with Reentrant. Commented Oct 9, 2012 at 8:41
