Comment (by Mike Lissner):

 That works for me. In that case, I'll make this more concrete: Unless
 further discussion here says otherwise, I intend to create a draft PR on
 Github that adds a new property to the cache DB class. The property will
 set CULL_EVERY_X (or maybe a better-named var) to 20, meaning that it'll
 cull every time the cache gets to be 5% bigger than MAX_ENTRIES. (This
 default is currently arbitrary, but seems fairly reasonable to me?)

 I don't have any good sense of how to do the counter though. Any
 suggestions that are better than a mod of a random number?
