Well, I would imagine that they are saying this for good reasons. Most of us as developers do not see the impact of exclusive locks, or at least not enough to notice a difference in performance. It is possible that as a hosting company running several shared servers that the impact would be far greater. I think that before we dismiss what they are saying, we should get it from the horses mouth so to speak and contact Macromedia on the subject.
