It actually doesn't, it stay long enough that anybody who need to restart can, but IPFS is nearly built in memory management.

Any idea how long it's supposed to remain on there?
It seems to be up for at least a week, I haven't tried pulling anything too old because it's out of focus. If you're building a service with this you might want to store at least a daily snapshot of the state, most of the memory management happens once daily, and even if it was a gig, it'd take ~3 years to fill a consumer level 1TB harddrive.
Could always implement an incentive mechanism to keep selected backups. :)
