I totally agree with you Al. The final judgement should be on our shoulders.
Give us the extra option and we will know which will be the best strategy
for our unique situations. Even though I love speed, I would take stability
any day. I don't mind a few  a few milliseconds here and there but I do mind
coming in to the server room on a weekend because the coldfusion service has
stopped responding again. =)

Adding cflocks aren't that bad at all but I would still like the option. I
think allaire should concentrate on stability a little more to be honest.
