Deletion of partition events in JBoss ON results in OutOfMemoryError when there are more then a million of partition events in the database

Issue

• Operation Timed out and Crash when deleting all partition events
• When trying to delete all partition events from JON (over 1 million events), the operation times out and JON subsequently crashes after spiking the CPU.
• Deletion of partition events in JBoss ON results in OutOfMemoryError when there are more then a million of partition events in the database
• Attempt to delete huge number of partition events (more then 1 million events in the database) causes:
