Thomas Weise commented on HCATALOG-311:
---------------------------------------

There will be potentially many current/expired transactions in list, need to 
handle expiration accordingly:
 
* Integrate expiration inline/lazily as part of begin/abort/snapshot 
* Decided not to use a timer based thread option - benefits don’t justify added 
complexity at this time 
* beginTransaction to perform actual expiration with revision data storage 
update (interval ~30s) - need to read modify and write open revisions at that 
point anyways 
* Skip expired transactions from active list in createSnapshot (cleanup only 
happens as side effect of subsequent beginTransaction calls) 

Limitation: We initially will only handle revision data and don’t delete 
corresponding data from HBase (no “rollback”)
