Assuming it's not CFMX yes my experience shows it is vital to lock Application, Session and Server vars. With Session vars, frames can cause problems and users getting impatient and clicking multiple times in the same request are dangers. User behavior is too unpredictable to take chances with not locking and the consequences of corrupted memory are also unpredictable and very, very debilitating.
