Just attended
a OU course in Performance Tuning.   After hearing the explanation on
incremental checkpointing, I still cannot understand the purpose/design
of this incremental checkpointing.

What is the key design, vs complete checkpointing, in Oracle database?   WHat is the tradeoff that it sacrificed, in order to achieve what it does?

And what is no-force-at-commit policy, as mentioned in this paper:

Thanks.
