Abstract
A number of algorithms have been proposed for accessing
B-trees concurrently, but the performance of these
algorithms is not yet well understood. In this paper, we
study the performance of various concurrency control
algorithms using a detailed simulation model of B-tree
operations in a centralized DBMS. Our study considers
a wide range of data contention situations and resource
conditions. Results from our experiments indicate that
algorithms in which updaters lock-couple using exclusive
locks perform poorly as compared to those that
permit more optimistic index descents. In particular,
the B-link algorithms provide the most concurrency and
the best overall performance.
