This would be perfectly valid if Sampath was running OnLine. As he indicates that he is running SE, and as such should be using kernel locking, then the kernel parameters that control the number of locks available in the kernel *is* something he needs to look at. Be careful folks - not everyone out there is running OnLine (at least nt yet ;-)).
