    For (3), and if you’re interested in checking if specific bits are set or not, take a look at https://github.com/bits-and-blooms/bitset and https://github.com/RoaringBitmap/roaring.

    Each topic has a roaring bitmap. Each bit corresponds to a subscriber in the skip list. For each topic, head and tail cursors are also maintained to ensure that newly added subscriptions are always tested and deleted subscriptions are always evicted. Roaring bitmaps are compressed and discontinuous so memory usage again remains bounded as subscribers come and go.

    Roaring bitmaps + btrees are a rock solid indexing approach. Alternatively, bleve has a lot out of the box but that's introducing a new datastore, basically.

    Each subscriber is stored in a skip list. As subscribers are added, they are assigned an autoincrementing ID and the skip list grows. Skip lists are preferred over slices here due to their discontinuous nature. Subscribers can be added and removed at random and the memory usage will remain bounded.
