Locking and Cursors
532850Sep 11 2006 — edited Sep 13 2006If I had just one wish from Sleepycat, it would be to improve lock management when using cursors. When traversing large datasets, there seems to be deadly lock buildup which can only be cleared by closing the cursor and ending the transaction. This adds complexity to the code, and I'd really like a way to 'checkpoint' the cursor so it can release locks it no longer needs.
