Journaling with commitment control requires less resources that
journaling by itself.  With commitment control running, journal entries
are paged out at the commit boundary instead of when the entry is
journaled.  With the performance improvements in commitment control and
the system in general over the past few years, our standard is to use
commitment control for all transactions that span multiple records.

Regards,
Stan
