When two requests might get processed at the same time and both might try to read and/or update a shared scope variable... a case of whichever request wins the the race... :) A rule of thumb here is: if you don't really understand the subtleties of race conditions (or deadlock situations), then you're safer to lock every access/update (even if, in reality, you may not need to). In other words, if in doubt, be overly cautious. "Conform! Consume!
