[JENKINS-31055] Note theoretical race condtion
Seems rather unlikely, but none the less it is a possibility. Not sure how we should handle this though: * We do not want to hold the Queue lock while performing I/O as that will grind everything to a halt * We do not want a big fat lock on all nodes * If we have a per-node lock then the save everything method may have to grab them all In short, it gets ugly real fast. For now, I believe that the risk is very low as releasing a lock does not intrinsically deschedule a currently running thread so the likely course of events is that the thread will release the lock and at least start the save before a competing thread could acquire the lock update remove the node release the lock and delete the node's directory
