They only "lock" if the container implements there transaction isolation (not to
be confused with the database's) in a pessimistic manner. It used to be that
only WebLogic took this route, and I don't believe the jBoss folks are doing
this.
In the optimistic scheme, a bean with identical pks are instantiated to handle
each concurrent client request.
