Actually application variable reads and writes do not need to be locked in CFMX (which is thread safe in that regard). It was crucial in previous versions however which is where much of the confusion comes in. The point here is that the process inside that code takes several seconds - perhaps as many as 10 or 15. Before the change during all that time other requests were piling up waiting to get at the code in the lock, which they did as soon as it was released. > You might consider setting the var to SOMETHING before the long init > process...
