High volume of memory cached by Infinispan for PutFromLoadValidator$PendingPut and TransactionImple in EAP 6

Issue

• A high volume of memory is retained by an Infinispan cache/container (87% of the total memory) leading to an eventual OutOfMemoryException
• For the memory retaining java.util.HashMap$Node instances, the value is PutFromLoadValidator$PendingPut and the key is TransactionImple
