I'm getting loads of lock messages during CVS checkins recently. Is this due to overload ? (I wonder why anoncvs access causes locking at all -- there is no write access so why should there be file locking ?):
I haven't seen this myself. Could be you were just unlucky. Could be someone was doing a full checkout over a slow connection. I think the anon checkouts still use (read) locks because they need to get a consistent version. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
