It's done server-side.  Note that what really happens is that, when a statement 
begins execution and there is no open transaction, a snapshot is taken and then 
released when the statement finishes (just as happens in READ COMMITTED mode).  
No piece of code literally injects a BEGIN and a COMMIT statement to make it 
happen.
