   ### Before Creating the Enhancement Request
   
   - [x] I have confirmed that this should be classified as an enhancement 
rather than a bug/feature.
   
   
   ### Summary
   
   This enhancement improves the resource management lifecycle in `TimerWheel` 
class by properly managing `RandomAccessFile` and `FileChannel` resources 
throughout the object's lifetime, preventing file handle leaks that can occur 
when resources are closed prematurely in the constructor.
   
   ### Motivation
   
   The current implementation of `TimerWheel` creates `RandomAccessFile` and 
`FileChannel` as local variables in the constructor and closes them in a 
`finally` block immediately after mapping the file. 
   
   ### Describe the Solution You'd Like
   
   1. **Convert local variables to instance variables**: Move 
`RandomAccessFile` and `FileChannel` from local variables in the constructor to 
instance fields of the `TimerWheel` class.
   
   2. **Remove premature resource closure**: Remove the `finally` block in the 
constructor that closes `RandomAccessFile`, allowing the resources to remain 
open throughout the object's lifetime.
   
   3. **Add proper cleanup in shutdown()**: Add logic in the `shutdown()` 
method to properly close the `FileChannel` (and implicitly the 
`RandomAccessFile`) when the `TimerWheel` is being shut down.
   
   ### Describe Alternatives You've Considered
   
   
   1. **Using try-with-resources**: Considered using try-with-resources for 
automatic resource management, but this would close resources too early since 
the `MappedByteBuffer` needs the underlying channel to remain open.
   
   2. **Keeping resources local but passing to shutdown()**: Considered keeping 
resources as local variables but passing them to a cleanup method. However, 
this approach is less clean and doesn't align with object-oriented design 
principles.
   
   3. **Using a separate ResourceManager**: Considered creating a separate 
resource manager class, but this adds unnecessary complexity for a single class 
with straightforward resource management needs.
   
   4. **Delayed initialization pattern**: Considered lazy initialization, but 
the resources are needed immediately during construction, so this doesn't 
provide benefits.
   
   The chosen solution (instance variables with cleanup in `shutdown()`) is the 
most straightforward and aligns with the existing codebase patterns while 
ensuring proper resource lifecycle management.
