> I tested FIFOQueue by replacing a SharedQueue class for EventSensor (a
> core system part, responsible for delivering events).
> In attached file you can find a patch, which will make your sensor to
> work with FIFOQueue, after you save image,
> or do 'EventSensor install'.

> There are also a heavy-concurrency tests in corresponding test
> classes, which is passing ok.
