Tutorial or quck-start needed

I have been avoiding the blockchain as much as possible for years; I know nothing of its terminology or concepts. But if I am to get involved with it, Convex...

convex as a blockchain backend for sign-in like magic.link?

1

As a Clojurian I have followed Convex with great interest, but never set aside the time to figure it out. I am totally new to blockchain/crypto concerns but was shocked...

Transfers seem much faster than Invokes of `nil`

1

Discovered in cloud testing. For some reason `Transfer` type transactions execute much faster than an `Invoke` of `nil`. Main difference appears to be more Blocks getting processed in e.g. 240...

Network fork detected in multi-region simulations

2

This seems to happen especially when 2 regions are involved, for some unknown reasons: ```clojure ["2023-07-17T10:37:01.58" :warn [convex.peer.AThreadedComponent 34] ["Unexpected exception in ComponentTask" {:trace [[convex.core.Peer updateState "Peer.java" 474] [convex.peer.CVMExecutor loop...

Batching of transactions

6

It has been noted in cloud tests that Peers are often creating blocks with small number of transactions, which is likely to be suboptimal for throughput and consensus efficiency (we...

`Missing data in Order` extremely pervasive

4

During a 10 min simulation, a single peer can log it hundreds of thousands of times, commonly looking after the same hash several times. This is bound to have a...

`Unexpected exception getting Belief: Message too long`

5

It seems all peers issue that pair of warnings very early in simulations, once. ``` ["2023-07-03T11:37:36.944" :warn [convex.net.message.Message 104] ["Bad format in Message payload" {:trace [[convex.core.data.Format decodeMultiCell "Format.java" 738] [convex.net.message.Message...

Current fork recovery is implemented but disabled pending fixes on Block filtering (risk of Blocks getting duplicated while recovering from fork) which is mostly harmless but breaks some unit tests

Verify minimum peer staking

4

The minimum stake is currently set to 1e9 CVX. Before this requirement, I was already noticing situations where finality was 10 - 20x slower when at least some peers where...
