Choice and Performance in Locking for Databases

Summary: Analytic model evaluates locking choices: granularity, conflict-resolution, and when to acquire locks (dynamic vs static). Finds dynamic locking better under light contention; static locking preferable under heavy contention; granularity position and hybrid blocking-restart strategies provide quantitative guidance.
