OP, The PaymentMethod entity doesn't grow with each transaction, but only when a user sets up a payment account(CC, EFT, etc.) or edits one of the accounts. Best way to see this is to create an account on hotwaxmedia demo site w/ different payment methods. In another window open the webtools entity tool and look at the EFTAccount and creditcard entities and the payment method entities. Make changes in your user profile on the hotwaxmedia site and check out what happens in those entities.
CJ also play with editing payment methods(In the Profile screen) and you will see that it makes a new entry each time a CC/EFT account is edited.
