An Analysis of Concurrency Control Protocols for In-Memory Databases with CCBench
Summary: CCBench is a configurable CC analysis platform for in-memory DBs; supports seven protocols and seven optimization methods. Silo can beat TicToc on writes; conflict handling matters; two optimizations: read-phase extension and aggressive GC; code on GitHub.
