> {{SegmentCache}} contains, through the underlying Guava cache, hard 
> references to both {{SegmentId}} and {{Segment}} instances. Thus, 
> {{SegmentCache}} contributes to the computation of in-memory references that, 
> in turn, constitute the root references of the garbage collection algorithm.
> Further investigations are needed to assess this statement but, if 
> {{SegmentCache}} is proved to be problematic, there are some possible 
> solutions.
> For example, {{SegmentCache}} might be reworked to store references to 
> MSB/LSB pairs as keys, instead of to {{SegmentId}} instances. Moreover, 
> instead of referencing {{Segment}} instances as values, {{SegmentCache}} 
> might hold references to their underlying {{ByteBuffer}}. With these changes 
> in place, {{SegmentCache}} would not interfere with {{SegmentTracker}} and 
> the garbage collection algorithm.
