Replication, Consistency, and Practicality: Are These Mutually Exclusive?

Summary: Study compares three replication protocols avoiding 2PC: global locking, pessimistic, and optimistic replication graphs with lazy updates. Under contention, replication-graph protocols cut aborts from ~70–80% to ~10%, but degrade near saturation. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
