That's what the DefaultSharedEditingContext is for (many readers, few 
writers) but most people have trouble implementing it properly.  That may or
may not be because it's buggy.

What you can do instead is have an application-level editing context and 
set your session's defaultEditingContext to that.  Then when a writer comes
in you don't set it.

Of course, you'll have to make sure that you do multithreading and 
locking properly in either case.

Alternatively, you can have one app for readers and another for 
writers.  Depending on your requirements you may run into stale data issues.
