I mean this would actually make sense.... For example if my access token is valid only for 3 days, it doesn't make any sense to keep having it in the filter for more than 3 days since anyway it is going to expire after that time.

Hi @rnbokade ,

Apologies, but I don't understand your question. If I can improve the documentation I will.

An entry lives in the bloomfilter twice the bloomfilter TTL.

Thanks and sorry. I didn't see that documentation. It is indeed well documented
