Our application is currently experiencing signs of a memory leak.  We have 
analyzed the heap dumps and have traced the largest block of memory back to a 
HashMap in org.jboss.cache.TransactionTable.

I stepped through the code and found that on every put to the cache 2 
transaction entries are written to the "txs" and "tx_map" but only 1 is 
removed, leaking one entry per put.  The entry which is leaked is initiated 
from (TreeCache.put(Fqn, Object, Object) line: 3845).  The entry which is 
properly cleaned up is from (TxInterceptor.handleNonTxMethod(MethodCall) line: 
361).

Here is the code used to do the cache put


  |             Option option = new Option();
  |             option.setFailSilently(true);
  |             Fqn keyFqn = new Fqn(new Object[]{this.regionFqn, key});
  |             cacheRegion.getCache().put(keyFqn, ITEM, value, option);
  | 

Environment: WebSphere 6.1 + JBC 1.4.1.SP4

Here is a relevant portion of the heap dump:
