Race condition in getQuery

[sgoldenb]

Hi,
i have a project in which multiple go routines parse xml files in parallel.
Today i got the following crash:

fatal error: concurrent map read and map write
goroutine 509 [running]:

In findOne there is a package variable for the not thread save groupace/lru and since i use xmlqery concurrently the whole thing can crash here.

It is possible to disable the cache but i am not sure how much this would impact performance.

I guess that adding a mutex here would not impact performance as much as disabling the cache completely.

Should i write a pr for this?

Best regards
Sebastian
