# This class wraps an ActiveRecord database transaction, and contains a workaround
# for a memory bloat issue that happens when you create a large number of ActiveRecord
# model instances within a database transaction, and those model classes use the
# paper_trail gem for versioning.
#
# This workaround temporarily removes transaction callbacks registered on ActiveRecord
# classes by paper_trail, and then manually calls these callbacks once the transaction
# has finished.  The precense of the transaction callbacks is what causes ActiveRecord
# to hold onto the model instances until the transaction finishes.  ActiveRecord will
# not hold onto the model instances if no transaction callbacks are defined.
