If <threaded> is true, list ismulti-thread safe.  <root> and <maxLevel> determine performance and expected size (see discussion above).<flushLimit> is for threaded lists and determines themaximum number of deleted items to keep cached duringconcurrent searches.  Once the limit is reached, new concurrent reads are blocked until all deleted items are flushed.MT-Level: Safe..SH "RETURN VALUE"None..SH "SEE ALSO".BR skipDelete "(3), "skipFreeList "(3), "skipRelease "(3), "skipInsert "(3), "skipSearch "(3), "skipNext "(3), "skipNewList
