Rework locking to use advisory locks instead of row locks#520
Conversation
In an attempt to reduce the xact locking burden, stop using transaction- linked locks for all our concurrency and start using advisory locks instead. Is this likely to just be changing one problem for another? I don't know, but now there will certainly be fewer row locks under contention...
