Re: 1), remember that caches are really meant for a read-mostly use case. If your test stresses the cluster with concurrent writes (i.e., writes 100% of the time) there will be a degree of deadlocks that occur.
Basically when CacheInstance1 commits a tx, it issues a local prepare (already holds locks on the nodes) and broadcasts a remote prepare to acquire locks on the other cache instances.
If at the same time, CacheInstance2 commits a tx ON THE SAME DATA (acquires local locks before CacheInstance1's remote prepare is received) and attempts to do a remote prepare, both caches will deadlock since they both want locks on each other's data.
The user guide explains how this works. Here are links to the 1.4.x user guide.
