@p4u from vocdoni.io reported that the mempool might behave incorrectly under a high load. The consequences can range from pauses between blocks to the peers disconnecting from this node. My current theory is that the flowrate lib we're using to control flow (multiplex over a single TCP connection) was not designed w/ large blobs (1MB batch of txs) in mind. I've tried decreasing the Mempool reactor priority, but that did not have any visible effect. What actually worked is adding a time.Sleep into mempool.Reactor#broadcastTxRoutine after an each successful send == manual control flow of sort. As a temporary remedy (until the mempool package is refactored), the max-batch-bytes was disabled. Transactions will be sent one by one without batching Closes #5796

Tendermint
Welcome to the Tendermint Core documentation!
Tendermint Core is a blockchain application platform; it provides the equivalent of a web-server, database, and supporting libraries for blockchain applications written in any programming language. Like a web-server serving web applications, Tendermint serves blockchain applications.
More formally, Tendermint Core performs Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) State Machine Replication (SMR) for arbitrary deterministic, finite state machines. For more background, see What is Tendermint?.
To get started quickly with an example application, see the quick start guide.
To learn about application development on Tendermint, see the Application Blockchain Interface.
For more details on using Tendermint, see the respective documentation for Tendermint Core, benchmarking and monitoring, and network deployments.
To find out about the Tendermint ecosystem you can go here. If you are a project that is using Tendermint you are welcome to make a PR to add your project to the list.
