i was thinking the same - alternatively:
- do whatever is you are doing in a background thread
- switch on concurrent request handling, as i presume that it is
actually the request that is blocking, not the DB as unless your
are using something like m$ access (eeek!) then i would imagine
your DB can actually do more than one thing at once
- if you are using m$ access, change it if you can, or resign if
you can't
- re-work locking strategy to force an optimistic locking failure
if more than one update goes through - even if that involves
sticking a dummy attribute in that just increments with each
transaction
what you are suggesting feels a bit like sticking some pedals on a
car because the engine keeps stalling - probably best to fix the
engine :-)

What I am doing is reporting a bug in the WebObjects API adaptor,
with the circumstances as how how I encountered it. It might be
possible to deduce, for example, that the application list etc (see
config.c in the Adaptors project) is in shared memory, while
uniqueID_counter (see transaction.c) is not in shared memory, but
should be, if we cared.
Anybody reading this list who is interested in the adaptor?
