Thanks, Gus. Can you reveal the secret of the queued latches (USR and SCH/SCC)? How these latches work together with the semaphores?

I can generate the high activity on the USR latch but I don’t see the related activity on the semaphores. I can catch the process when it holds the USR latch but I don’t see any changes of its semaphore status.
