[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-5773) Disable registration of AfterTransactionCompletionProcess based on Session CacheMode

Disable registration of AfterTransactionCompletionProcess based on Session CacheMode ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: HHH-5773 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5773 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Improvement Components: caching (L2), core Affects Versions: 3.6.0 Reporter: Emond Papegaaij The session keeps track of all changes to entities in the 'actionQueue'. This ActionQueue contains a AfterTransactionCompletionProcessQueue, which grows rapidly with every change/insert/delete of entities. There seems to be no way to clear this queue, other than to commit or rollback. I can understand that Hibernate needs to keep track of changes in a transaction, but this list should not hold references to entities. Perhaps references can be replaced by lazy proxies? In our case, we are trying to import many (millions) records into the database. This needs to be performed in a single transaction. These records reference entities in a complex (and large) data-structure. The entities in this structure are not modified, but as the ActionQueue contains all newly inserted records, which in turn reference the entities in this structure, the entire structure ends up in the session. Flushing and clearing has no effect.
