Many IX and S locks found

Hi Chris
There are so many IX and S locks when i run ttxactadmin as below, and there are error 6003 in the tterrors.log. I am not sure how it comes and how i can do to avoid so many locks (IX,S), as the locks seem to lead to the poor performance.
Regards
Li

Hi Chris
Thanks for your kind reply! It is very helpful to look into the problems and find some better resolutions.
I simply kill the PID associated to LOCKS, I cann't but have to kill the PID accossiated to the lock cause they really degrade the performance.
"When you get a 6003 lock timeout error in the application, the associated error text contains a great deal of information; what is the error text for the errors that you are seeing? That should help you determine where the real lock contention lies. If your application does not report/log that text then it needs to do so..."
---you mean the error text in the JAVA application or in TT?
Here is the TT configuration, most of attributes are set by default.
