Towards Optimal Transaction Scheduling
Summary: Systematically searches the full transaction schedule space rather than restricting candidate schedules, using greedy SMF to discover efficient operation orders. MVSchedO enforces these orders at fine granularity in RocksDB, yielding up to 3.9× throughput and 3.2× lower tail latency. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
