Questions related to caching are never 'naive' ;-)
The cache is flashed for tx isolation reasons. A commited object must be
removed from all caches in an OJB cluster so that other transaction
(possibly running in different JVMs on different physical machines) only
"see" valid data, that is data read in from the DB.
