InstanceParameters.LogBuffers property

Gets or sets the amount of memory used to cache log records before they are written to the transaction log file. The unit for this parameter is the sector size of the volume that holds the transaction log files. The sector size is almost always 512 bytes, so it is safe to assume that size for the unit. This parameter has an impact on performance. When the database engine is under heavy update load, this buffer can become full very rapidly. A larger cache size for the transaction log file is critical for good update performance under such a high load condition. The default is known to be too small for this case. Do not set this parameter to a number of buffers that is larger (in bytes) than half the size of a transaction log file.
