Local DynamoDB Batch Write Causes Excess SELECT Statements

Hello, I have a dynamodb local instance running on my Windows 11 system and have been testing the batch write feature of DynamoDB. I'm using ASP.NET Core and am using the high-level DynamoDBContext class to perform the writes. The writes are working and that's not an issue. What I'm curious about is what the SQLLite logs are showing. The server states this:

INFO com.amazonaws.services.dynamodbv2.local.server.LocalDynamoDBServerHandler - target: BatchWriteItem And then dozens, if not hundreds of these lines show up immediately after: [SQLiteQueue[shared-local-instance.db]] DEBUG com.amazonaws.services.dynamodbv2.local.shared.access.sqlite.SQLiteDBAccessJob - SELECT StreamID FROM sm WHERE TableName = ? AND (DeletionDateTime IS NULL OR DeletionDateTime > ?) ORDER BY CreationDateTime DESC LIMIT 1;

And then, finally, I see the batch write HTTP request show up. Is this something I should be concerned about? Is this specific to the local dynamoDB implementation? I don't have any sort of code logic that's sending reads in parallel with the batch writes in this situation. Any insight on what these logs mean would be awesome.

UPDATE 7/21/2022: A user asked for the code snippet and dynamodb local version. I'm using version 1.18.0 and this is the downloaded version, not Docker.

Code snippet where the task is fired off in parallel. This is awaited later on in the method. Only 25 items are batched at once:

BatchWrite<DynamoBGCLog> batchWriter = this.dynamo.CreateBatchWrite<DynamoBGCLog>();
batchWriter.AddPutItems(logsToWrite);
logsToWrite.Clear(); // empty out the bag

writeTasks.Add(
    Task.Run(
            () => BGCUtilities.BackoffAsync(
                    () => batchWriter.ExecuteAsync(abortToken),
                            maxRetries: 30,
                            maxRetryTimeMS: 5000,
                            abortToken: token),
                        token));

Thanks!
