One-shot Garbage Collection for In-memory OLTP through Temporality-aware Version Storage

Summary: OneShotGC eliminates MVCC version traversal in in-memory OLTP by temporal clustering of versions into contiguous blocks released as one block. Implemented in Proteus; evaluated on YCSB and TPC-C, yielding up to 2x throughput by avoiding GC traversal. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
