Does redux "unload" the state data from memory that it is not actively using?

I tried to search for unload in this section but didn't find any.

Anyway assuming I have data stored in AsyncStorage with redux-persist that contains many pieces of information and not all of them are used in every screen. Does RTK unload it's data from memory to the persist store or just keep them in memory for the life of the app?

I read this part about limitations of Redux in WatermelonDB which made me think of the question.

For simple apps, using Redux or MobX with a persistence adapter is the easiest way to go. But when you start scaling to thousands or tens of thousands of database records, your app will now be slow to launch (especially on slower Android devices). Loading a full database into JavaScript is expensive!

No, persistence is about syncing data in the store to somewhere else like localStorage.

Redux has the entire current store state in memory, in a single variable. Anything pointed to by that nested object is in memory.
