This field gives the number of stalled enqueue lock requests for new locks that ultimately resulted in a deadlock. Most deadlocks are tried again and resolved by Oracle Rdb without the application program ever knowing there was a deadlock. Therefore, the number shown in this field does not necessarily reflect the number of deadlocks reported to the application program. Each deadlock reported in the "rqst deadlocks" field is also reported in the "rqsts stalled" field. This is because each deadlocked request is also a stalled request.
