However, applications needing a high level of transactional guarantee may need a write and synchronous flush on the client. By default in the Berkeley DB 4.2 release, client database environments write and synchronously flush their logs when receiving a transaction commit or prepare message. Applications not needing such a high level of transactional guarantee should use the environment's <a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_TXN_NOSYNC">DB_TXN_NOSYNC</a> flag to configure their client database environments to not do the write or flush on transaction commit, as this will increase their performance. Regardless of the setting of the <a href="../../api_c/env_set_flags.html#DB_TXN_NOSYNC">DB_TXN_NOSYNC</a> flag, clients will always write and flush on transaction prepare.</p> <table width="100%"><tr><td><br></td><td align=right><a href="../upgrade.4.2/repinit.html"><img src="../../images/prev.gif" alt="Prev"></a><a href="../toc.html"><img src="../../images/ref.gif" alt="Ref"></a><a href="../upgrade.4.2/tcl.html"><img src="../../images/next.gif" alt="Next"></a> </td></tr></table> <p><font size=1>Copyright (c) 1996,2007 Oracle.
