I was told (always dangerous I suppose) that in CFMX shared memory scope locking is no longer necessary. That does not mean locking overall is not necessary, just shared memory scope.

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.
