Is there a way to disable transactions on certian queries? I read a while back that this wasn't possible, just wondering if it is in 8.1 or planned in the future? Does it even make a dent in the performance if a query is wrapped in a transaction instead of out? Such as a view counter, like... update views = views + 1 where x = 1;?
