--------------------------------------
    Workaround Description:   (was: Step one iteration at a time in a debugger and the issue does not appear :D)

> There is a simple [recovery test in the test suite|https://github.com/jbosstm/narayana/blob/master/tomcat/tomcat-jta/src/test/java/org/jboss/narayana/tomcat/jta/integration/BaseITCase.java#L141] that runs 3 times in a row. If you change that number to 4, there is a good change you will get the TS stuck forever. When I attached debugger and used breakpoints on the iteration, e.g. {{i==3}} or {{i==10}}, the error was not shown, the TS run and completed, so it is clearly a time related race condition.
> In this JIRA's example, to reproduce, simply:
> {noformat}
> -        IntStream.range(0, 3).forEach(i -> test(EXECUTOR_URL + RECOVERY_TEST));
> +        IntStream.range(0, 10).forEach(i -> test(EXECUTOR_URL + RECOVERY_TEST));
> {noformat}
> When the Tomcat gets into this unfortunate state and TS hangs and Tomcat runs forever, this is what keeps showing in the database trace (and nothing else):
> {noformat}

> h3. Logs and thread dumps
> * [^postgresql_trace_log.zip] -- PostgreSQL trace, note the originally expected course of recoveries and then the repeated stuck on the aforementioned message.
> * [^test.war] -- test app used; the TS builds it for you though and stores it in {{tomcat/tomcat-deployment/_DEFAULT__Basic-app_test.war}}
> * [^thread_dumps_in_sequence_over_time.zip] -- thread dumps taken over time with minutes in between snaps.
> * [^tomcat_logs.zip] -- Tomcat logs
> * [^good_threaddumps.zip] --  a dozen of snapshots couple of seconds from each other as an example of a good TS run that terminates as expected, i.e. with {{IntStream.range(0, 3).forEach(i -> test(EXECUTOR_URL + RECOVERY_TEST));}}.
> * This is what good, i.e. 3 iterations long DB trace looks like: [good db trace|https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/drANRRl4DlckwLhSIwCOdA/raw].
> * This is what good, i.e. 3 iterations long Tomcat catalina log looks like:  [catalina log|https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/CkaDCZCtoVhDtyTglEOFqg/raw]
> Might interest also [~ochaloup].   WDYT guys? What should I try out?
