I went and read it, too!

Good stuff!

I turned on "Full Checking" for locks on my production server
and now I can't get any sites to run locally that I've built
except the one I'm working on now!  :o)

I've got a lot of "lock picking" to do!  But that's good...
never knew how important the locks were.

Thanks for the article!

At risk of making a shameless plug I've an article that explains locking
in some detail here:

http://www.depressedpress.com/DepressedPress/Content/ColdFusion/Guides/L
ocking/Index.cfm

It's only completely applicable to CF 4-5 (version 3 wasn't
multi-threaded and MX is thread-safe - although much of the material is
still applicable).

But if you are using v4-5 then you really must learn this.  It'll save
your sanity later. ;^)
