Incomplete Cleanup of Key_ID Entries in _m After removeItem #272

Description

There seems to be an issue with the removeItem function in our storage system, specifically with entries formatted as key_id. After invoking removeItem, some of these entries are not fully cleaned up and remain in the _m mapping object. This residual data could potentially cause unexpected behavior or errors in subsequent operations.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Insert multiple items using keys formatted as key_id (e.g., loginInfo_shortToken).
  2. Remove these items using removeItem.
  3. Check the _m object for any residual entries.

Expected Behavior

All entries related to the specified key_id should be completely removed from _m after the execution of removeItem.

Actual Behavior

Some entries remain in _m even after their supposed deletion, leading to unnecessary bloat and potential inconsistencies.

Possible Impact

  • Inefficiencies due to bloated memory usage.
  • Potential for retrieving outdated or incorrect data.
  • General instability in storage operations.

Suggested Actions

  • Review and revise the cleanup logic in removeItem to ensure all references are effectively removed.
  • Implement additional checks and balances to verify the integrity of _m after deletion operations.

This issue needs attention to prevent possible data integrity problems and to maintain optimal performance of the storage system.

Thank you!
