Aborted transactions not being cleared causing memory leak resulting in OutOfMemoryError: PermGen/Metaspace

Issue

• A heap dump is being generated (as a result of the -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError JVM option) after running out of PermGen/Metaspace space (OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space or java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Metaspace).
• Inspection of the heap dump shows a classloader not able to be collected due to references to Versant classes:
