Assessment

This issue has not been assessed yet.

Description

bug type: tech debt

opctx.Event is not thread safe and will trigger go -race detection.

We should either add a mutex to it (some extra overhead, but probably dominated by other parts of code), or make a thread safe version (extra code).
