The scenario I was thinking of. Transaction 1: 1. modify entity A Transaction 2: 2. findAll Transaction 1: 3. findAll - <causes ejbStore of A, then loads up read-ahead cache with modified A> 4. rollback - <with current codebase, A is trashed from the entity instance cache and returned to the pool.> Transaction2: 5. getA from findAll. LoadEntity finds A in read-ahead cache. Read-ahead cache has bad data. I still have a bad feeling about sharing the read-ahead cache between transactions in commit option 'A', but I can't currently find any problems with it.
