Seems to only effect moving entities. Villagers in minecart left stationary don't despawn minecart hoppers left stationary don't despawn. I believe this has something to do with entities crossing chunk borders. Also my world has a button and a piston on a chunk border, the button forgets what it triggers until I replace it and the piston disappears periodically (suspect because it exists In two chunks when it's fired) I suspect a minecart track looped only in one chunk would not despawn the minecart or entities contained in one chunk. Will test in my world and report back....
