Yes, although if I'm doing this for PR, I need to use language which is standard in the industry or I won't be understood. What about "high-concurrency pessimistic locking mechanism"? I don't have a problem covering this in PR even though it's not really "new": a) it's never been in our PR before; b) while it's been available for 4+ versions, who knew about it? c) we have a new refactored code and cleaned up API -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
