Problem Summary:
**************************************************************** 
* USERS AFFECTED:                                              * 
* ALL                                                          * 
**************************************************************** 
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         * 
* During connect and disconnect processing the dblatch must be * 
* acquired at various times to serialize access to data.   In  * 
* Two places (in sqeApplication::AppStopUsing when it checks   * 
* the db state and in                                          * 
* sqeLocalDatabase::ShouldWeStartBackgroundAgents when it      * 
* checks the dbstate) it has been determined that these checks * 
* can be made without acquiring the dblatch.  These changes    * 
* result in less contention on the dblatch and so improves     * 
* performance.                                                 * 
**************************************************************** 
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              * 
* Upgrade to Version 9.7 Fix Pack 5                            *
