A processor, system, and method are described for continued retirement of operations during a commit of a speculative region of program code. For example, one embodiment of a method comprises the operations of identifying a plurality of transactional memory regions in program code, including a first transactional memory region; and retiring one or more of a plurality of operations which follow the first transactional memory region even when a commit operation associated with the first transactional memory region is waiting to complete.
