The statements issued to lock each table is:-
 LOCK TABLE table IN EXCLUSIVE MODE; SELECT 1 FROM table;
So why selecting '1' for each row after locking the relation before? I
don't know HA-JDBC but this looks really useless. Remove the SELECT and use
the LOCK TABLE command within the transaction which does the sync for you.

I will give it a try.

It could be that the HA-JDBC code expects some selected value back. In which case a simple "SELECT 1" should be fine. I have to agree with Bernd that selecting all rows and then throwing away the results strikes me as particularly a braindead behaviour from the library, presumably it makes some sort of sense for locking a limited number of rows.
