Improving Optimistic Concurrency Control Through Transaction Batching and Operation Reordering

Summary: Multi-stage batching for optimistic OLTP: storage-layer read/write reordering and validator-layer batching to reduce conflicts; dependency- and thread-aware reordering. Experiments on research, open-source OLTP, and production systems show up to 2.2x throughput and 71% tail-latency reduction under high contention. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
