I'm not sure but it looks like diagnostic messages regarding locking of 
cache-structures (or something like that). As such they are probably 
harmless (unless you are having other problems). If my guess is correct 
these would simply be messages telling you (or Matt) what the system is 
doing in case something actually went wrong.
