> Currently, the Kinesis consumer keeps a list of {{(StreamShardMetadata, 
> SequenceNumber)}} as its state. That list also contains all shards that have 
> been closed already, and is kept in the state indefinitely so that on 
> restore, we know that a closed shard is already fully consumed,
> The downside of this, is that the state size of the Kinesis consumer can 
> basically grow without bounds, as the consumed Kinesis streams are resharded 
> and more and more closed shards are present.
> Some possible solutions have been discussed in the linked PR comments.
