RE: possible session bug - Mantis Bug Tracker

Just wanted to follow up with this and let any interested parties know..

This ended up being a problem with Mantis' feature to grab users email
addresses from LDAP. Disabling this solved the issue.

The lock aspect is a feature. Otherwise one session might clobber
another session's data. PHP locks sessions so new ones won't begin
processing until the lock is released. This is why only one page can run
at a time. The code can release the lock early if it is finished with
the session, but whatever Mantis is spending time on, is before it
releases the lock (or finishes the page if it uses the default release
mechanism).

Cheers,
Rob.
