var list = new List<Task>();
var fileStream = File.Open("test", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.ReadWrite, FileShare.None);
for (int i = 0; i < 150; i++)
{
var index = i;
var task = Task.Factory.StartNew(() =>
{
var buffer = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(index + "\r\n");
fileStream.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
});
list.Add(task);
}
Task.WaitAll(list.ToArray());
fileStream.Flush(true);
fileStream.Dispose();
