      Clear should be non-transactional, independent of the cache configuration. This is because a transactional clear would, if implemented strictly, required all cache keys to be locked, which could lead to global deadlocks, particularly in distributed caches.

      Also, making cache clear cache contents eventually, not immediately would simplify AsyncStore implementation by relaxing the point at which clear happens. As an extension of this, it would simplify development of coalescing logic in other parts of Infinispan
