      Run the Java code from this gist: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/5221f3025b549a708299

      Expected result:

      One thread will "win" and be the one to insert the document. The rest will see the insert and just update the existing document.

      Actual result:

      Depending on timing, there are 0-4 exceptions thrown indicating a duplicate key error.

      A test program that starts five threads, each repeatedly upserting a document with the same _id to a collection that doesn't initially contain a document with that _id, will encounter duplicate key errors on the first attempt from 0-4 of the five threads, depending on timing.
