I have a very basic function that performs several steps. Each one of these
steps could take a significant amount of time which I would like to track.

To do this I am inserting a record to a logging table with a timestamp.
After my function runs, all of my log entries have the exact same
timestamp. I am assuming this is because they are all being committed in
the same transaction.

Is there a way I can commit those log inserts in real time?
