Trust me, I send a single transaction of several hundred SELECT every time I 
open a debtor “file”.

Not being able to do updates as a block, though, could give me inconsistencies 
if I could have both failures and successes in the same set, to the point of 
having to pack my bags and go home.

I happened to have a notable latency at  the time, which made things far worse. 
 But when you have a great many, you have a built in 2n*latency lag, even if 
the transactions themselves took no time.
