>Description</H2

> <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"

all statements after a <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"

> command will be
executed in a single transaction until an explicit <A
HREF="sql-commit.html"
>COMMIT</A
> or <A
HREF="sql-rollback.html"
>ROLLBACK</A
> is given.
By default (without <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>BEGIN</TT
>),
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> executes
transactions in <SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"
>"autocommit"</SPAN
> mode, that is, each
statement is executed in its own transaction and a commit is
implicitly performed at the end of the statement (if execution was
successful, otherwise a rollback is done).
</P
><P
> Statements are executed more quickly in a transaction block, because
transaction start/commit requires significant CPU and disk
activity. Execution of multiple statements inside a transaction is
also useful to ensure consistency when making several related changes:
other sessions will be unable to see the intermediate states
wherein not all the related updates have been done.
</P
><P
> If the isolation level, read/write mode, or deferrable mode is specified, the new
transaction has those characteristics, as if
<A
HREF="sql-set-transaction.html"
>SET TRANSACTION</A

was executed.

<A

to terminate a transaction block.

> Issuing <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"

provoke a warning message. The state of the transaction is not affected.
To nest transactions within a transaction block, use savepoints
(see <A

>SAVEPOINT</A
