I hope this isn't too basic of a question. I am using Fabrik to put an application together for a client. I have a difficult problem (I'll spare you the details) and one solution seems to be using GET_LOCK() in MySQL. My hosting provider uses MySQL v5.5, in which "only a single simultaneous lock can be acquired". And that is either great or it's a showstopper, depending on my question:
My question is this: If two users are accessing my Joomla site concurrently and they both cause the server to execute code that uses GET_LOCK(), will they each be able to get and hold a lock? (If you don't want to research GET_LOCK(), keep reading!)
Or, to state the question more simply, does the Joomla installation have a single, persistent connection to the database or is a connection established each time a Joomla user executes a FabrikWorker::getDbo() call?
