Abstract
A method for identifying matching transactions between two log files where each transaction includes one or more statements. Each log file record records the execution of a statement and includes a transaction identifier. Each record in turn in one log file is compared to an advancing window of records in the other log file. A first table contains associations of statements to transactions and transactions to statements for records in the window. If a match is found between a record in the one file and a record in the window, information associating partial transactions in the one file to potential transactions of the records in the window is added to a second table. If an end-of-transaction record is read from the one file, a best match is found between the ended transaction and the potential transactions based on information in the first and second tables.
