[weld-dev] persistence and transactions outside Java EE

Hi Reza;
TM just executes second phase of the distributed transaction algorithm, i.e it does not run "prepare phase", directly executes commit phase with ONE_PHASE parameter true.
But it has still more overhead than a local-transaction mode. Because TM has always a role whether it is 2-PC or 1-PC.
Thanks;

Gurkan,
Thanks for that...reading through JTA/JCA has been on my wish-list for a
while, I just haven't gotten around to it yet - the blog post exploring
JTA performance would have been my final impetus :-).
So the real overhead of JTA in optimized mode is what exactly (as far as
you know)?
Cheers,
Reza
