Please excuse my ignorance and my late comment, but can you make your 1hr operation shorter?
The general advice I've always been given has been "whenever you need to use a resource that might cause contention do it quickly, in and out in a blink". I know that the argument then would be "why do I need to change my code to fit the tool?" but in general terms I'd think that having such a long running operation is a bad thing anyway? Unless the 1hr operation is just an exaggeration to get your point across, in which case just ignore my comment :) U -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
