Progressively degrading performance saving MT to database

Description

MT performance seems to worsen the longer it continues, for larger documents.
The time it takes to process the translations in a (Hibernate?) request at org.zanata.service.impl.TranslationServiceImpl#translate(...) seems to increase from 500~1000 every use, suggesting there's a cache or leak in this area.

The debugging shows:

Edited

An "entityManager.clear();" at the end of MachineTranslationServiceImpl#saveTranslationsInBatches seems to work, cutting the increasing cycle from 10+ seconds to 1.5, but breaks when adding attribution at
MachineTranslationServiceImpl#prefillProjectVersionWithMachineTranslation entityManager.merge(doc);

It seems there is a refresh or reload required somewhere, but I don't know where.

Further to this, adding attribution as a new transaction after the first has completed seems risky. If the transaction fails, perhaps being a large transaction based on doc size, there may be a lot of unattributed translations.

Ready for Release
