JPA Entity is too big to be persisted - jpa

Question

The entity Test have a List of Questions Entity, Question itself have a List of Answers entities. With Cascade.All enabled on all of them.
when I try to persist a new Test Entity with say 10 Question, it gets persisted just fine. However Once I bump The number of questions to 20. It's prints an exception saysing webContanier is not started.
Exception:

The method:
private boolean persistingTest;
public String finish() {
if(!persistingTest){
persistingTest = true;
// set status
String redirectURL = redirectReachedRestrictionSubmit();
if(redirectURL != null){
return redirectURL;
}
test.setCreationDate(LocalDate.now());
test.setOwner((User) getContext().getExternalContext().getSessionMap().get("user"));
test.setQuestions(new ArrayList<>(questions.values()));
// persist using dao
// return test.xhtml?id=ID of Test
test = testDao.create(test);
BigInteger forwardID = test.getId();
//Re-Initiliaze
initiliazeBean();
return TEST + "&id=" + forwardID;
}
return null;
}
testDao.create(test); calls EntityManager.persist
I fix it by persisting each Question first then apply relationships. Is there a way to tell JPA to handle an entity with a little bit more of data?
Thanks.
