top-posting:

Running more in-depth tests, we found out that there is an issue with matrix parameters in the REST-API (see [1] for more details).

We are now trying to understand the cause for these issue, and also check whether there is a workaround or not.
If we won't resolve it soon we'll have to postpone the move to Wildfly until this gets resolved.

I'll keep you all posted.

Regards,
Oved

[1] For example, asking for only 2 VMs can be done via using the following resource URL
   http://engine:port/ovirt-engine/api/vms;max=2
