   phases:

     PREPLOGBUFFER
       we will build an output buffer ourself and then use O_DIRECT
       we could be in read lock for this
       for very large objects write directly to redo log in situ?
     WRITETOJOURNAL
       we could be unlocked (the main db lock that is...) for this, with sufficient care, but there is some complexity
         have to handle falling behind which would use too much ram (going back into a read lock would suffice to stop that).
         for now (1.7.5/1.8.0) we are in read lock which is not ideal.
     WRITETODATAFILES
       actually write to the database data files in this phase.  currently done by memcpy'ing the writes back to 
       the non-private MMF.  alternatively one could write to the files the traditional way; however the way our 
       storage engine works that isn't any faster (actually measured a tiny bit slower).
     REMAPPRIVATEVIEW
       we could in a write lock quickly flip readers back to the main view, then stay in read lock and do our real
         remapping. with many files (e.g., 1000), remapping could be time consuming (several ms), so we don't want
         to be too frequent.
       there could be a slow down immediately after remapping as fresh copy-on-writes for commonly written pages will
         be required.  so doing these remaps fractionally is helpful. 

   mutexes:

     READLOCK dbMutex (big 'R')
     LOCK groupCommitMutex
       PREPLOGBUFFER()
     READLOCK mmmutex
       commitJob.reset()
     UNLOCK dbMutex                      // now other threads can write
       WRITETOJOURNAL()
       WRITETODATAFILES()
     UNLOCK mmmutex
     UNLOCK groupCommitMutex

   every Nth groupCommit, at the end, we REMAPPRIVATEVIEW() at the end of the work. because of
   that we are in W lock for that groupCommit, which is nonideal of course.
