The best example and what I think about when setting a cflock is a web hit counter. If two people visit a page at exactly the same millisecond, a cflock would be needed to me sure the data is correct. There are a couple of additional times when I think back to the web hit counter logic and see if it's a problem with an update or insert script but normally, I try not to rely on the ID of the last inserted record for anything so 9.9 times out of 10 cflock is not needed.
