Performance Slows When You Use XA Transactions with SQL ServerArticle ID: 318818 - View products that this article applies to. This article was previously published under Q318818 SYMPTOMS
When you use XA transactions with Microsoft SQL Server through the Merant JDBC driver, you may notice that performance slows.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Server (MS DTC) xa_end call has thread affinity. This thread affinity forces a lot of thread management, which causes a big performance hit for the driver when you use XA transactions.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain Microsoft COM+ Hotfix Rollup 19. This hotfix replaces the thread affinity restriction of the xa_end call with a new switch to an xa_open string.
