hibernate

As a Java programmer, you usually keep two truths in your pocket:

Instance variables and Objects lie on Heap.
Local variables and methods lie on the Stack.

Now that I use Hibernate in just about everything, I realize I'm not as sure of myself.

Are there some good rules of thumb for using hibernate and knowing where your memory lives?
