Long-lived Transactions Made Less Harmful
Summary: Presents vDriver, a SIRO-based MVCC that reclaims dead versions while long-lived transactions run. Formalizes version pruning theorem and classification, integrates with MySQL-8.0 and PostgreSQL-12.0, demonstrating reduced space and maintained throughput under LLTs.
