Re: multiple access bog down on HP-UX 11i

Has no one ever come across anything like this?

I have seen this issue in .28, .29 and now in .32.

It is 100% repeatable. Every time several checkouts are taking place
and an import is started (or vice/versa) all processes go to sleep, the
load drops and I/O is reduced to almost nothing...
