Connectivity issues (especially on testnet11) #12

Open Rigidity opened 4 days ago

Rigidity commented 4 days ago

On testnet11 there is a much lower number of peers than mainnet, and the peers are generally lower quality. Many are also not port forwarded, or fully synced.

This results in connections dropping off more frequently, not being able to connect to more than around 20, and quickly exhausting the entire list. There seems to be an issue with peers getting banned more often than needed, and once you've banned every peer on testnet11 you just get stuck in a DNS lookup loop with no peers.

I'm not quite sure the cause for all of this, whether the reference Chia wallet has the same issues, or how to fix it.
