• I think this is a great article. I like that you explain the concept and then explain the pros and cons.

    I understand the difference between the subject of the article and using NO LOCK hints. (At least I think I do.) But I wonder if it might have made the article a bit stronger to add a paragraph on how this is a different thing entirely than NO LOCKS and why. But maybe that would be considered "beyond the scope of the article". I'm just throwing out a thought.

    Thanks for the article.
