> RocksDBListState currently keeps whole list of data in single RocksDB
> key-value pair, which implies that the list actually must fit into memory.
> Larger lists are not supported and end up with OOME or other error. The
> RocksDBListState could be modified so that individual items in list are
> stored in separate keys in RocksDB and can then be iterated over. A simple
> implementation could reuse existing RocksDBMapState, with key as index to the
> list and a single RocksDBValueState keeping track of how many items has
> already been added to the list. Because this implementation might be less
> efficient in come cases, it would be good to make it opt-in by a construct
> like
> {{new RocksDBStateBackend().enableLargeListsPerKey()}}
