My manual says the trany will stay cooler wit OD locked out. For the same reason. The fluids circulate more, because there is higher RPM. I also get better MPG, and better performance with OD locked out. My engine is MUCH happier turning a little more RPM.
To the OP. I wouldn't worry too much. Your trany ain't gonna hold OD anyway.
I don't think it is an rpm thing. Many times the trans may shift into OD but cannot achieve lockup or goes in and out of lockup but stays in OD. This is when the heat builds.
