Actually I noticed that removing all the locks (even the forgotten ones) seems to have solved the problem... I had 100000 unique users on 22 instances running for a day and no deadlocks.
Any thoughts about stuff that is done in the Session.terminate? I need to do some cleanup if the session terminates, do I get automatic lock unlock in that scenario or the termination happens in a separate thread and so I have to manually lock/unlock?
