long confirmation times and failing to populate transaction list #1418

Open TalDerei opened 2 weeks ago

TalDerei commented 2 weeks ago

I've noticed some strange behavior during long confirmation times. A transaction will randomly silently pass (transfers funds between addresses) but will not display success or appear in the transactions list. This seems somewhat concerning. cc @grod220 @Valentine1898 have you noticed this before?

Is this the result of unstable RPC? For example, TransactionsByHeight may fail to return a result or return it for a very long time (infinitely pending)

I have not encountered this problem specifically, but I have observed that when RPC is unstable, some requests hang forever during sync

this was observed last night when the rpc was stable https://grafana.testnet.penumbra.zone/d/Uq0N5097k/client-info?orgId=1&from=now-12h&to=now

My intuition also suggests this issue is RPC-related, as it seems to work fine on another less used RPC node. I'll keep this issue open as a record.
