FairCom DB supports grouping transaction commit operations for multiple clients into a single write to the transaction logs. This feature is referred to as a group commit or commit delay. Transaction commit delay is a good choice for optimizing performance in environments with large numbers of clients under high transaction rates. This is controlled with the COMMIT_DELAY keyword.
Commit delay helps decrease the overhead involved in flushing a transaction log. The performance improvement per individual thread may result in only milliseconds or even microseconds, however, multiplied by hundreds of threads and thousands of transactions per second, this amount becomes significant. FairCom has implemented a number of ways to enhance the effectiveness of commit delay logic.
