-# go-detect-race
-
-Check if the race detector is running.
-
-I didnt find a variable to check quickly enough so I made this.
-
-
-## Usage
-
-```go
-import (
-  detectrace "github.com/jbenet/go-detect-race"
-)
-
-func main() {
-  if detectrace.WithRace() {
-    // running with -race
-  } else {
-    // running without -race
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Why?
-
-Because the race detector doesnt like massive stress tests. Example:
-https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/golang-nuts/XDPHUt2LE70
-
-## Why didn't you just use...
-
-Please tell me about a better way of doing this. It wasn't
-readily apparent to me, so I made this. But i would much prefer
-an env var or some already existing var from the stdlib :)
