Paper: Staring Into The Abyss: An Evaluation Of Concurrency Control With One Thousand Cores

We implemented seven concurrency control algorithms on a main-memory DBMS and using computer simulations scaled our system to 1024 cores. Our analysis shows that all algorithms fail to scale to this magnitude but for different reasons. In each case, we identify fundamental bottlenecks that are independent of the particular database implementation and argue that even state-of-the-art DBMSs suffer from these limitations.

tl;dr: ACID and NewSQL databases rarely provide true ACID guarantees by default, if they are supported at all. See the table.
