Hundreds of thousands are the norm. You can check the ovlocks field in the output of onstat -p for every lock attempt that failed, but that doesn't tell you how many they requested, only how many you were short. If you zero (onstat -z) the profile counts and run a single application, you could check the lockreq field in the output of onstat -p.
