I subscribed to the one-pm-per-request pattern so long ago that I've even forgotten why. This works very well for me. I can bind my list to jsf dataTable and scroll through the results as they're loaded from the database.

Not as convenient as the LRS, but good to know that OpenJPA is smart about ranges.
