If you are using Count 2.5+, it should not happen. Only make sure that the disk partition where the datafile is located is not a NFS mounted partition. If it is NFS mounted, you might find counter process is hanging and consuming CPU and the data files are getting clobbered. The reason for this is, file locking is not reliable on all Unix over NFS.
