The store (and cache) don't fill up linearly.
Create a new node, and watch the traffic, on the empty datastore you will start
having "1 write, 1 key" then "2 writes, 2 keys" but pretty soon you'll have
"1001 writes 998 keys" that is because some of the keys that are written already
are overwriting the keys that are there.
