I know how redo logs and their commits are supposed to work, but I was wondering if anyone knew how the undo log itself works as well... is it supposed to be a faster way to do logging as opposed to redo log? Or do they both have drawbacks that the other does not?

I think the log (or journal) is for both redoing and undoing? – billc.cn Oct 25 '11 at 2:34
