Also, yesterday I started an analysis of how transactions are being treated when there wasn’t enough RC to get them included into the blockchain. This is because while analyzing a high traffic time period on the p2p network, I had seen evidence that such transactions are lingering until the account either regenerates enough RC or the transaction expires, which isn’t desirable, in my opinion, from a performance view.
Did I instigate this little discovery with my dumbness of not understanding why my node was laggin and assuming it was the p2p plugin? =p
Yes, it was while looking into your report about high traffic that I saw this strange behavior in the RC code.
I've never looked into this code before, but my initial feeling is that the code isn't behaving exactly as the original coder intended.
