We had a job which ran just fine on a Sequent (NUMA-Q) using version
8.1.7. Then we migrated to 9.2.0 on Linux, and it had frequent
problems. We fixed it by making sure the job did an explicit commit no
matter what (originally, it was possible to find a branch with no
commit). This has led me to believe that the actual behavior is version
and platform dependent.
