Joe-
Here's my attempt at an explanation.
1) Session 1 acquires a write lock on, say, a row in the table
2) Session 2 acquires a write lock on, say, a row in the table
3) Session 1 attempts to read the entire (committed) data in the table,
but is forced to
wait until Session 2 is done with its transaction because Session 2 has
a write lock on some portion of the table.
4) Session 2 attempts to read the entire (committed) data in the table,
but is forced to wait until Session 1 is done with its transaction
because Session 1 has a write lock on some portion of the table. BOOM,
you're dead in the water.
