Forcing a CFLOCK deadlock does not seem to spike the CPU... I use that once in a while although you may want to check with Dave Watts or someone a little more familiar with CF's internals...
<cflock scope="Session" timeout="20" type="ReadOnly"> <cflock scope="Session" timeout="20" type="Exclusive"> <!---waiting... for 20 seconds---> </cflock> </cflock> I don't remember any screams of horror when I picked that idea up from this list way back when :-) ______________________________________________________________________ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
