Andrzej Bialecki  commented on SOLR-9658:
-----------------------------------------

There's a trade-off between the cache size and hit ratio - we would like to use 
as much memory as possible to get a good hit ratio, but this is costly so we 
also want to use as little memory as possible while retaining a good hit ratio 
;)

So there's a certain sweet-spot for dynamically adjusting cache size, where we 
use just enough memory to get a good hit ratio. If hit ratio falls below a 
threshold we can reduce the memory (because this means that many entries are 
useless), if hit ratio is high then we can increase the memory because the 
cache is full.

> Caches should have an optional way to clean if idle for 'x' mins

> If a cache is idle for long, it consumes precious memory. It should be 
> configurable to clear the cache if it was not accessed for 'x' secs. The 
> cache configuration can have an extra config {{maxIdleTime}} . if we wish it 
> to the cleaned after 10 mins of inactivity set it to {{maxIdleTime=600}}. 
> [~dragonsinth] would it be a solution for the memory leak you mentioned?
