Claim 10:
11. A system for managing data object contention, the system comprising:
a first computer, among a plurality of computers included in the system;
a second computer, among the plurality of computers included in the system;
a first data object; and
a first computing application, included in the first computer;
wherein the first computer is configured to:
receive an intervention notification associated with a first request to obtain a first copy of the first data object and, in response to receiving the intervention notification, to record a first hot object status indicating that the first data object is a potential hot data object;
determine an action associated with the first application processing the first data object; and
suppress the action based, at least in part, on the first hot object status indicating the first data object is a potential hot data object; and

wherein the second computer is configured to:
receive the first request to obtain the first copy of a first data object;
determine that the second computer includes the first copy of the first data object;
determine that the first request is associated with a read-only use of the first data object;
determine that the second computer has the first copy of the first data object with a read-only status;
communicate, based at least in part on the first request associated with the read-only use of the first copy of the first data object and the first copy of the first data object having the read-only status, a notification that the first request did not cause an intervention associated with the first copy of the first data object; and
demote a usage status of the first copy of the first data object from a read/write status to the read-only status in response to determining that the first request is associated with the read-only use of the first data object.
