Alan, I am having a similar lock-out problem while performing a complex
query on SQL Server 2K. All other hits cannot connect until the query
returns the results. My research has so far taken me here:
http://www.zope.org/Members/petrilli/DARoadmap
Which is telling me I am probably using at most a Level-2 DA with my ZODBC.
And then here:
http://www.zope.org/Members/djay/ZmxODBC/ZmxODBC_0_0_2.tgz/README
Which is a Level-3 mxZODBC DA (multithreaded).
If anyone sees a problem with what I am about to do, let me know. What do
you think?

Subject: [Zope-dev] RE: ZODBC problem
Thanks Dieter, I was kinda looking for a solution, I reviewed the mailing
lists but do not see any solutions. I've done some more testing here:
Summary: The user selects an involved financial report. The report takes
about 55 seconds for Zope to prepare. The first second is the SQL server
request and reply. The remaining time is Zope processing (dual 200mhz NT
box).
My queries are SELECT JOINS. No tables are modified at the server.
The problem I see here is that Zope/ZODBCDA is holding the connection to SQL
open via ODBC until all processing is complete and then issuing an SQL
statement: IF @@TRANCOUNT>0 COMMIT TRAN
Zope could free up this connection after one second. (at least in this case)
Until Zope does the commit, other users are locked out.
For read only queries, there is no need to have the request under
transaction control. In any case, Zope should be able to early release the
SQL connection and then process on the results.
Certainly increasing processor speed will mask this problem and provide
better response to users, but I'm hoping for a real fix.
Thanks,
Alan
