Well, it doesn't look like you're using the two RelStorage connections the way they are intended to be used. For the code snippet you gave, it's likely that you want to use the load connection rather than the store connection. The load connection ensures consistent reads. RelStorage does a number of things to maintain that guarantee. The load connection is never committed, only rolled back. The store connection is intended to be used only during transaction commit. At the beginning of a commit (tpc_begin), RelStorage rolls back the store connection in order to get the most recent updates. The store connection and load connection are often out of sync with each other, so code that uses the store connection should detect and handle conflicting updates. I suspect the load/store connection split is too complicated for most apps that just want to interact with the database, so I haven't exposed any documented API. I considered making an API when I worked on repoze.pgtextindex, but I concluded that pgtextindex can be a bit lazy about consistency and therefore doesn't need all the extra complexity that reusing RelStorage connections would bring.
