Performance Evaluation of Ephemeral Logging
Summary: Ephemeral logging (EL) on disk eliminates checkpoints and reduces long-transaction aborts, suited for highly concurrent workloads with diverse lifetimes. Simulation shows disk-space savings with modest log bandwidth and RAM, yielding faster recovery. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
