Socket errors with too little traffic #114

Open matburnham opened 2 years ago

matburnham commented 2 years ago

Tightly controlled filters seem to pass insufficient traffic to keep things working well.

Running python-ogn-client with a 300 km filter radius around central UK results in minimal traffic, and fairly quickly causes a socket.error (presumably a server disconnect, but it could a client disconnect?)

By increasing the radius of this filter, traffic increases:

I don't understand exactly what's happening, although fixing the curt error message in #113 does help. It seems to be timing out, but this is nowhere near the point where a keepalive (with current timing) would make a difference.

I wonder if #112 relates at all?
