Hmmm. Your results are withing the margin of error for DBT2, so they show no
real difference. What we need for this is a heavy-read workload, though; on
a workload like DBT2 (which is mostly writes) I wouldn't expect lazy-XID to
help much.
I'll see if I can find something appropriate. Maybe Jan's TPC-W
implementation?
