* guaranteed not to throw <tt>ConcurrentModificationException</tt>.
* The iterator will not reflect additions, removals, or changes to
* the list since the iterator was created. Element-changing
* operations on iterators themselves (<tt>remove</tt>, <tt>set</tt>, and
* <tt>add</tt>) are not supported. These methods throw
* <tt>UnsupportedOperationException</tt>.

可以看出一个存在两个方法 getArray和setArray。当调用任何读操作不需要加锁，而做写操作则需要做lock
1. 存在内存问题（大集合可能出现fullgc超长）当出现写操作可能出现double size+的内存（同时存在老的集合和新的集合，比较容易引发fullgc）
2. 不一致性（某个线程调用完了add，其实此时并不能读到该元素，因为此时可能setArray尚未调用），但是达成最终一致性
3. 读效率高，和ArrayList集合基本持平，适合读多写少的场景（比如缓存！）
而synchronizedList无论读写的效率均会受到影响，可以当CopyOnWrite容器不合适的需要同步的场景。
