When starting EAP 7.1.0 ER2 and using standalone.xml there are 15% of loaded classes clustering related. To be precise 1091 classes out of 7285 classes in my check.

Goal:
Reduce number of loaded clustering related classes in standalone.xml
Price of 15% of loaded classes for 2nd level cache stuff is too high.
