Recommendations:
  • Use tools for detecting deadlocks to get a hint where to start looking for in the source code
  • VisualVM is very easy to use for detecting deadlocks
  • Read the source code carefully. Especially the parts where you think "Ah, this can't do any harm"
  • Make sure to understand the requirement and not to change the original behavior of the application
