I was planning to alert the developer to a lock ordering problem even if a deadlock doesn't occur (edit the same object but acquire a different set of locks in a different order to do it). That would be a smoking gun / simultaneous red-herring type heuristic. There are a few more as you suggest. but I _love_ the idea of auto-kill. We just started down this path for other reasons but this idea is killer. Thanks Bob! --Ari GREAT IDEA!
