Damian Steer commented on JENA-118:
-----------------------------------

Unlocking occurs at the end of the transaction in postgresql. Other databases 
(mysql, db2, oracle) have something similar, but (surprise!) details vary. 
MySQL appears to need an explicit unlock.

I should clarify the 'heavy' bit: it holds the lock longer than it strictly 
needs to (after node table modification is complete), and I think it prevents 
'safe' concurrent reads, i.e. sparql queries. However it enables concurrent 
(ish :-) writes, so I'm inclined to enable it. Original reporter doesn't seem 
to have tried it.

> SDB can't concurrently write (duplicate key error)
