%% <h2>Tuning Gproc performance</h2>
%%
%% Gproc relies on a central server and an ordered-set ets table.
%% Effort is made to perform as much work as possible in the client without
%% sacrificing consistency. A few things can be tuned by setting the following
%% application environment variables in the top application of `gproc'
%% (usually `gproc'):
%%
%% * `{ets_options, list()}' - Currently, the options `{write_concurrency, F}'
%%   and `{read_concurrency, F}' are allowed. The default is
%%   `[{write_concurrency, true}, {read_concurrency, true}]'
%% * `{server_options, list()}' - These will be passed as spawn options when
%%   starting the `gproc' and `gproc_dist' servers. Default is `[]'. It is
%%   likely that `{priority, high | max}' and/or increasing `min_heap_size'
%%   will improve performance.

%% This function first tries to read the value of a cached property,
%% `{p, Scope, {gproc_env, App, Key}}'. If this fails, it will try the provided
%% alternative strategy. `Strategy' is a list of alternatives, tried in order.
%% Each alternative can be one of:
%%
%% * `app_env' - try `application:get_env(App, Key)'
%% * `os_env' - try `os:getenv(ENV)', where `ENV' is `Key' converted into an
%%   uppercase string
%% * `{os_env, ENV}' - try `os:getenv(ENV)'
%% * `inherit' - inherit the cached value, if any, held by the parent process.
%% * `{inherit, Pid}' - inherit the cached value, if any, held by `Pid'.
%% * `{inherit, Id}' - inherit the cached value, if any, held by the process
%%    registered in `gproc' as `Id'.
%% * `init_arg' - try `init:get_argument(Key)'; expects a single value, if any.
%% * `{mnesia, ActivityType, Oid, Pos}' - try
%%   `mnesia:activity(ActivityType, fun() -> mnesia:read(Oid) end)'; retrieve
%%    the value in position `Pos' if object found.
%% * `{default, Value}' - set a default value to return once alternatives have
%%    been exhausted; if not set, `undefined' will be returned.
%% * `error' - raise an exception, `erlang:error(gproc_env, [App, Key, Scope])'.
%%
%% While any alternative can occur more than once, the only one that might make
%% sense to use multiple times is `{default, Value}'.
%%
%% The return value will be one of:
%%
%% * The value of the first matching alternative, or `error' eception,
%%   whichever comes first
%% * The last instance of `{default, Value}', or `undefined', if there is no
%%   matching alternative, default or `error' entry in the list.
%%
%% The `error' option can be used to assert that a value has been previously
%% cached. Alternatively, it can be used to assert that a value is either cached
%% or at least defined somewhere,
%% e.g. `get_env(l, mnesia, dir, [app_env, error])'.
