Hi, Is it possible to add an expiry_secs after the fact? In that if I didn't set one originally for a bitcask backend can I add one now, or will I have to dump data if I do?
Since my understanding is that this value is used when bitcasks are compacted in order to remove old fields, I have a feeling you can set it at any point, but I want to make sure.
