Hi

We use existdb extensively to run xqueries on our external databases, 
couchdb and others. We dont use the existdb datastore for our data.

We used to run on an old 3.3.3 version of existdb, and recently migrated 
to 6.2. Since then we have found that existdb locks the xquery that is 
being executed, causing deadlocks that eventually locks up the server. 
Is there an easy way to tell existdb to revert to the older locking 
behaviour that does not lock up the xquery being run?


Regards
