These changes check for stale connections (and kill them) at a higher rate. You should see the following improvements:
- Execute "stats": Stale nodes, (no data shown in Recv-Q & Send-Q columns), are pruned at higher rate.
- Execute "delta": Improved responsiveness, faster recovery from drift.
At the time of this writing, I am setting max_connections to 512 in node-config.yaml
. You may find another
setting that works better for you.
