Hi! What is the difference between Ubik's transactions and locks?
The source says that only one Write transaction can be active at any one time, but also that "this has nothing to do with transaction locking". There are three transaction modes (read, read-any and write) and two lock modes (read and write)... So far so good, but what does a write-lock do that a Begin(write) doesn't? Does it just lock any readers out? Could any readers active during a Commit read inconsistent data?
