Rethinking Logging, Checkpoints, and Recovery for High-Performance Storage Engines

Summary: New logging/recovery design for high-performance storage engines beyond ARIES, enabling incremental checkpoints. Per-thread logging with minimal sync yields scalable performance; LeanStore delivers near in-memory throughput and beats ARIES on OOM workloads. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
