A system for an in-memory row storage architecture can be provided. In some implementations, the system performs operations including processing a database statement comprising a first database transaction affecting one or more rows in an in-memory row store, registering the database statement at a start of execution of the database statement, the start of execution occurring at a first time, unregistering the registered database statement at an end of execution of the database statement, determining a second time at which execution of an oldest currently registered database statement was started, assigning a garbage collection thread to a second database transaction committed at a third time and affecting at least one row of the plurality of rows, and activating the garbage collection thread to reclaim memory within the in-memory row store when the third time is less than the second time. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.
