There is the possibility of other threads inserting into the same table, but wouldn't that be a problem according to my understanding of MVCC. There are no LOCK TABLE statements on this table.
I can't think of any programs which would be locking the files (antivirus or other), but I'll have a look.

I'm running the tests again with 8.2.3 to get an idea.

Cheers for the help!
