Abstract

In a multi-processor transaction execution environment a transaction is executed a plurality of times. Based on the executions, a duration is predicted for executing the transaction. Based on the predicted duration, a threshold is determined. Pending aborts of the transaction due to memory conflicts are suppressed based on the transaction exceeding the determined threshold.
