A threading detail that changed under `cached_property`: up to Python 3.11 the descriptor held an undocumented lock so that the getter ran only once per instance, but the lock was per property rather than per instance, so every instance's first access serialised on the same lock; the 3.12 documentation records that this locking was removed, and with it the once-per-instance guarantee. Since 3.12 two threads reading the property for the first time on the same instance can both run the getter, exactly as the article says for `lru_cache`, so a getter with side effects or an expensive connection setup needs its own lock either way. Small additions: `cache_parameters()` (3.9) returns the `maxsize` and `typed` settings of a cached function, and `lru_cache(typed=True)` keeps `f(1)` and `f(1.0)` apart.
