[jbossts-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBTM-1494) Produce performance figures to show performance improvements of Compensations over ACID

[Mark Little (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBTM-1494?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12813728#comment-12813728 ] 

Mark Little commented on JBTM-1494:
-----------------------------------

Performance is a false metric here. People shouldn't use compensations because they want to go faster (or slower). They should use them because ACID transactions are not appropriate. Remember that there is a trade-off here and it's often to do with consistency.

> As part of evangelising compensations, it would be useful to show performance comparisons for different classes of applications. 
> Ideally, these results should show that that, for certain classes of applications, the performance of a compensation-based transaction is a lot better than for an ACID transaction.
