I'm using Ehcache 3.9. I have a cache with key -> List<Value>. I set the memory limit on the heap to 1 MB.
Let's say I add an entry to the cache: key1 -> emptyList. Then I add many Value objects to the list of key1. Would those Value objects contribute to the size of the cache as perceived by Ehcache. In other words, would Ehcache still be able to limit the cache to 1 MB if the cache grows by extending value objects, instead of adding entries.
Thanks.
