The shrinker periodically wakes up and looks for expired elements.  

It doesn't keep the memory under the max.  That's done when you put an
item into the cache.

I think I saw that you had the shrinker come on every few seconds,
correct me if I'm wrong.  I was afraid that it would keep references to
everything if it was always running.  Now I'm not sure that could
happen.
