This is the reasons why 2PC's performance is so poor in the plot attached to Diego and Sebastiano's mail for the case of 1000 keys. Using the primary-backup, being concurrency regulated locally at the primary, and much more efficiently, the actual performace is overall much better. > This is even with deadlock detection enabled? We have not experimented to enable deadlock detection yet. We'll do it and let you know!
