GNAT's maps, for example, are slower than GNAT's own hash table
(the one that is not as easy to use as maps).

While Dmitry's "protected new" would be simple to use (if it
will work), I imagine containers that replace the defensive
checks for tampering etc. with contracts. The proof obligations
that follow will mean more work for users, but in return for
following the contract, concurrent reads can be safe and also
a little faster. At least the contract could make Element as
safe as reading array components in parallel.
