Re: Food Tasting, Memory and Rolling Back Transactions.

Hi Justin,

These two things you wrote below seem sort of contradictory:

> Conversely, if a transaction fails deterministically, it will always

> replayed from the journal. Therefore, eliminating the food taster does

...
> A rollback mechanism such as the food taster only helps you defend

> thrown from the *same* Transaction that introduced the inconsistent
> state.

See you, Klaus.
