I have journalled all my files since the facility first became available in the early days of the System/38 and used commitment control when that became available (a little later?). I have always used commitment control to ensure that there are no duplicate ID's in a file. There was little choice of method 20 or so years ago and, as it has worked without problem, I haven't "fixed" it.

As for performance, I have never had any problem and I always thought that the performance problems associated with journalling were a myth. If DASD is an issue, you can archive the journal receivers.
