Review Comment:
   I can see why you'd want to use a transaction to get the bulk of the work 
done before committing, but I don't think this actually works because you're 
committing the transactions sequentially below.
   
   I think to test we need to pass the `commitTransaction` call through and 
implement it either for an `InMemoryCatalog` or JDBC.
