There have been issues raised in the past around accidentally shipping the in-memory storage since it is the default and not getting the expected rate limits since "1/hour/user" distributed across n worker processes ends up meaning ~ "n/hour/user".

The warning is simply there to ensure everyone gets a heads up early on.

Additionally, the in-memory storage implementation was mostly intended to be a reference implementation and is probably not as optimized as it could be.
