<p>
From a performance perspective, the use of transactions is not free.
Depending on how you configure them, transaction commits
usually require your application to perform disk I/O that a non-transactional
application does not perform. Also, for multi-threaded
applications, the use of transactions can
result in increased lock contention due to extra locking
requirements driven by transactional isolation guarantees.
</p>
<p>
There is therefore a performance tuning component to transactional applications
that is not applicable for non-transactional applications (although
some tuning considerations do exist whether or not your application uses
transactions). Where appropriate, these tuning considerations are
introduced in the following chapters.
