+http://liw.fi/larch/ohad-btrees-shadowing-clones.pdf for details on
+the data structure.
+
+The distinctive feature of this B-tree is that a node is never
+(conceptually) modified.  Instead, all updates are done by
+copy-on-write.  This makes it easy to clone a tree, and modify only the
+clone, while other processes access the original tree.")
