Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: locking issues
Isn't it true that Bitmap indexes lock more than necessary rows ? I mean if
you are updating only one row, when bitmap index gets updated, it locks all
the rows that are in the same (index) data block. Could this be one of the
problem?
I may be wrong, but I know someone will correct me on this ...
Cheers
