Check out this Jira issue that I integrated today: https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-11120
If we enable this property, all the underlying resources are released right away. Otherwise (the default option), resources are released when the transaction is ended (commit/rollback). If this fix was a mistake and we should not support this property, then we should deprecate it and remove it in a future release, right?
