Yep quite a bit of transactions .. But the piece that's slow is where it 
is clearing it up in CommitTransaction().
I am not sure of how ProcArrayLock is designed to work and hence not 
clear what  we are seeing is what we expect.

Do we have some design doc on ProcArrayLock to understand its purpose?

Thanks.

Jignesh
