        <description>
Method-level synchronization can cause problems when new code is added to the method.
Block-level synchronization helps to ensure that only the code that needs synchronization
gets it.

Use of the keyword 'volatile' is generally used to fine tune a Java application, and therefore, requires
a good expertise of the Java Memory Model. Moreover, its range of action is somewhat misknown. Therefore,
the volatile keyword should not be used for maintenance purpose and portability.

        <description>
Partially created objects can be returned by the Double Checked Locking pattern when used in Java.
An optimizing JRE may assign a reference to the baz variable before it calls the constructor of the object the
reference points to.

Note: With Java 5, you can make Double checked locking work, if you declare the variable to be `volatile`.

        <description>
Non-thread safe singletons can result in bad state changes. Eliminate
static singletons if possible by instantiating the object directly. Static
singletons are usually not needed as only a single instance exists anyway.
Other possible fixes are to synchronize the entire method or to use an
[initialize-on-demand holder class](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initialization-on-demand_holder_idiom).

Refrain from using the double-checked locking pattern. The Java Memory Model doesn't
guarantee it to work unless the variable is declared as `volatile`, adding an uneeded
performance penalty. [Reference](http://www.cs.umd.edu/~pugh/java/memoryModel/DoubleCheckedLocking.html)
