Backports to the beta branch are to be avoided unless absolutely necessary for fixing bugs, security issues, and perf regressions. Changes intended for backport should be structured such that a minimum effective diff can be committed separately from any refactoring, plumbing, cleanup, etc that are not strictly necessary to achieve the goal. Any of the latter should go only into master and ride the normal stabilization schedule. Exceptions include CI/metrics changes, CLI improvements and documentation updates on a case by case basis. |
max_bytes for outgoing push messages is pretty outdated and does not allow gossip to function properly with current testnet cluster size. In particular it does not allow to clear out queue of pending push messages unless the new_push_messages function is called very frequently which involves repeatedly locking/unlocking CRDS table. Additionally leaving gossip entries in the queue for the next round will add delay to propagating push messages which can compound as messages go through several hops.

this does increase the number of CrdsValues sent per second (which is kind of the point). So, lets keep an eye on how push and prune metrics change as a result of this PR. with that said, lgtm!
this PR also enables unstaked nodes to join and stay in gossip.
