WebSphere Commerce Version 7.0.0.7 Fix Pack

Problem summary

• USERS AFFECTED:
  All users on WebSphere Commerce users on v7.0
  
  PROBLEM ABSTRACT:
  After a refresh of a registry, the size of the registry becomes
  unlimited.
  
  BUSINESS IMPACT:
  In most cases, a registry does not store a high amount of data,
  and thus this issue will only have an impact on systems that may
  store a high number of objects.  In a case where a registry may
  store a high amount of data, the performance may degrade due to
  the larger size of the registry as well as the increased memory
  footprint.
  
  RECOMMENDATION:
  

Problem conclusion

• The registry refresh code was updated to honor the registry size
  after refreshing/clearing the registry.
