possible memory leak

If you are using persistent disk based storage then index are also on disk.

The message what you are seeing is from H2 MVStore, (the underlying storage engine of nitrite), it uses LIRS cache. Here is the relevant section from it's documentation.

Concurrent reads and writes are supported. All such read operations can occur in parallel. Concurrent reads from the page cache, as well as concurrent reads from the file system are supported. Write operations first read the relevant pages from disk to memory (this can happen concurrently), and only then modify the data. The in-memory parts of write operations are synchronized. Writing changes to the file can occur concurrently to modifying the data, as writing operates on a snapshot.

Caching is done on the page level. The page cache is a concurrent LIRS cache, which should be resistant against scan operations.

For fully scalable concurrent write operations to a map (in-memory and to disk), the map could be split into multiple maps in different stores ('sharding'). The plan is to add such a mechanism later when needed.

You can find the full documentation here.
