FWIW I noticed by accident that the latest stable version of a not-competing database system has fixed a related bug: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=9709 (yes, it only took them two and a half years to fix it). Note that their behavior on finding SHARING_VIOLATION or LOCK_VIOLATION is to retry forever until the error goes away, on the theory that the antivirus/backup software will soon release the file. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.advogato.org/person/alvherre "Someone said that it is at least an order of magnitude more work to do production software than a prototype.
