I have. They work as advertised. I've already converted my

It's just a setup for performance/stress test. There is no reason other than 
impatience to have them in the same transaction. However, I feel uneasy about 
the varying number of locks needed. I don't understand it and wonder if there 
are similar lock spots in the application.
