Here's a sample deadlock: Failed Statement is: insert into t_3_5( a ) values ( next value for seq_3 ) ERROR 40001: A lock could not be obtained due to a deadlock, cycle of locks and waiters is: Lock : ROW, SYSSEQUENCES, (1,10) Waiting XID : {37240, X} , TEST, insert into t_3_5( a ) values ( next value for seq_3 ) Granted XID : {36715, X} Lock : ROW, SYSSEQUENCES, (1,8) Waiting XID : {36715, X} , TEST, insert into t_1_9( a ) values ( next value for seq_1 ) Granted XID : {37240, X} . The selected victim is XID : 37240. > Create concurrency test to stress sequence generators. > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: DERBY-4565 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4565 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Task > Components: SQL, Test > Affects Versions: 10.6.0.0 > Reporter: Rick Hillegas > Assignee: Rick Hillegas > Attachments: derby-4565-01-ad-firstRev.diff > > > Create a concurrency test to find bottlenecks and bugs in sequence generators. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
