Hmm, not a huge amount of tuning to be done there. Compression adjustment would help it stop diving ( if it is ), although so will extra air pressure, depending on if the fork has the correct sag already. It might even be the rebound is set too fast and giving you that pogo-stick feeling as you get out of the saddle and put more weight on it
The only trouble you might find with a lockout, is that the fork will sit higher, due to no sag. This will raise your bars and kick everything back, so that steeper hills will feel more awkward as the bike will be trying to wheelie more

I don't know if it's diving excessively, it's my first real experience of suspension to be honest. I do know that I could do the climb on my sscx bike, on bigger overall diameter wheels/tyre combos and a bigger gear, so I'm pondering 2 things:
-suspension/lockout
-no foot retention (useful on those v v v grindy uphill bits)
