I wish it was, but we have only one app on the server, and it does not use 
session variables and the application var usage has been thoroughly 
reviewed and the locks appear correct.

The application vars used by the app are refreshed essentially once a day 
or when they do not exist (isdefined), these locks would not have been in 
effect at the time of these crashed. The application vars would have been 
being read but not written. This is the case throughout the site with no 
exceptions.

There are several 3rd party calls, and I had thought initially that this 
was the problem. But I am not alone with this problem as it seems Tyler is 
with his "Success" stories. Tyler, do you think every one in this thread 
has some application issues and that we should all stop blaming CFMX and 
use your limited success as proof that CFMX works under load?
