Low-Overhead Asynchronous Checkpointing in Main-Memory Database Systems

Summary: CALC enables asynchronous checkpointing for main-memory DBs via logical consistency rather than a point-in-time snapshot. It avoids latency spikes and extra memory, enabling frequent checkpoints with near-constant throughput. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
