Sounds to me that you should be committing every time you do the write
logic. For example,
1) Start Trans
2) Check for needing to delete existing record and delete it
3) Write new record
4) Commit

If you did it this way you would be sure the other process would see every
written record immediately after it was committed.

I'm curious as to why you commit every 15 writes or 15 seconds. Have you
tried something like I've suggested above and actually observed a
performance problem with it? That's the only reason I can think of not
committing every write.
