Packet greater then 100KB are lost

Open majid-8 opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

I'm working on transaction and mempools. So i implemented a simple case. Each block has a list of transactions containing a fee and hash. Blocks with real packet size less than 100KB are sent without any problem, but greater packets are lost always. I test it using standard and relay protocol. Real bitcoin network propagates blocks greater than 1MB easly. Why i can't send packets greater than 100KB successfully?

Since i have reading the code e rerunning it, i have realized it is not a same as real world simulation, to assure you can run it like in 5 machines, the simulator must preserve a certain proportion. So 100KB, if im not wrong, is the representation to blocks of maximum size is around 100MB. Really hope that project will get some attention back.
