Actually, writing to the journal before executing is one of the fundamental
things that makes Prevayler fast. Other storage technologies tend to commit
after executing, which reduces the ability to pipeline and batch
operations. Prevayler can write several transactions to the journal in a
batch before *any* of them executes, based on the requirement that
transaction execution is deterministic.
