Curious was there any benchmarks run with and without this enabled?

Is it really necessary to use a ref to a bool here if feels a
bit odd to me? Is this just to block the tx completion on the timestamp?

If we really need this maybe a helper with set_tstamp and clear
tstamp would be nice? But they seem to come in pairs its either
false and NULL or true and set.
