Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-6554:
-------------------------------------------
Could we perhaps try to lock it in the parent transaction no-wait before we
give up with too much contention? Then we would use the parent transaction if
the parent transaction already holds locks that would block others from using
the sequence anyway, but not wait if there's some other transaction that's
locking the sequence.
Such a solution would open a small window for unwanted lock escalations,
though. If another transaction holds a lock that prevents the subtransaction
from doing its work, and releases the lock before it is retried in the main
transaction, it would end up being locked in the main transaction even though
it wasn't the main transaction that held the lock in the first place.
> Too much contention followed by assert failure when accessing sequence in
> transaction that created it
