Each new Account is going to have a reference to the connection, so 
that's to be expected.  Hmm... and the accounts won't be deleted 
because they are cached.  That's the problem, then.  Maybe the 
transaction simply needs to clear its cache on a commit/rollback (well, 
you can't really clear the cache, but you can make all the objects 
GCable).
