Abstract :
The performance of the two-phase commit protocols implemented by Digital Equipment Corporation´s (DEC)´s distributed transaction manager (DECdtm V1.1) is characterized. Throughput, response time, resource utilization and other performance aspects of reliable distributed transactions are analyzed. Efficient implementation and effective group-commit allowed DECdtm to reach up to 176 transactions per second on a single VAX8700 (6 VUPs) processor, and up to 76 distributed transactions per second between two VAX8700 nodes
