Abstract

This paper presents an empirical comparison of three classes of database concurrency control schemes: classical (r,x)-protcols, (r,a,c)/(r,a,x)-protocols based on two temporary object versions, and optimistic concurrency control. evaluation is based on six different real-life database reference strings recorded with a network DBMS. Sizes of the underlying databases vary between 60 MB and 2.9 GB. For comparing the performance impacts of synchronization protocols, we introduce a quantitative measure which basically reflects two parameters: First, number and length of blocking situations, and second the overhead incurred by repeated transaction execution due to deadlocks and validation conflicts, respectively. The results are highly sur- prisinq compared to the expectations based on qualitative considerations.
