Hi Carey,

You are right.

The USER: xxx indicates the "performing user".

The FLUSH/EXPIRE is not performed by the user being released. It is some
other users that is doing something, and during/after the Demo-users
transaction, the server checks for pending FLUSH/EXPIRE-operations.

So the performing user is Demo, but the affected users is the one further
to the right in the log row.
