If your planning on having thousands of keys in a datastore, then your going to need a very fast method of getting at them, and determining things like which to expire. All of this shouts out for the need for fast queries as well as flexible ones. Using an RDBMS saves you this sort of effort and time, and allows tweaking of expiry algorithms much easier than having a very rigidly coded datastore.
