// FIXME - currently O(n); improve performance for sparse traffic.
// Could use a regularly invoked GC, and keep the connections in one of two pools:
// - For connections with lower traffic, keep a double-LL of MRU, moving the connection to the head when used,
// and start at the LRU end when iterating. Needs to be concurrent.
// Cost is per packet, and maintains an ordering, meaning we only need to check those that have expired plus one extra.
// - For connections with higher traffic, it would be less expensive to leave unsorted and iterate in O(n).
// However, this would add complexity in terms of tracking which pool each connection should be in.
