+Be aware that `@PostConstruct` and initialization methods in general are executed
+within the container's singleton creation lock. The bean instance is only considered
+as fully initialized and ready to be published to others after returning from the
+`@PostConstruct` method. Such individual initialization methods are only meant
+for validating the configuration state and possibly preparing some data structures
+based on the given configuration but no further activity with external bean access.
+Otherwise there is a risk for an initialization deadlock.
+
+For a scenario where expensive post-initialization activity is to be triggered,
+e.g. asynchronous database preparation steps, your bean should either implement
+`SmartInitializingSingleton.afterSingletonsInstantiated()` or rely on the context
+refresh event: implementing `ApplicationListener<ContextRefreshedEvent>` or
+declaring its annotation equivalent `@EventListener(ContextRefreshedEvent.class)`.
+Those variants come after all regular singleton initialization and therefore
+outside of any singleton creation lock.
+
+Alternatively, you may implement the `(Smart)Lifecycle` interface and integrate with
+the container's overall lifecycle management, including an auto-startup mechanism,
+a pre-destroy stop step, and potential stop/restart callbacks (see below).
