stress testing the APIs and WebSocket hub

2

This complements the Insight socket.io tests in https://github.com/decred/dcrdata/issues/912. To support many non-browser client connections, stress testing needs to be performed on the following components: 1. The dcrdata API HTTP endpoints...

Last-Modified and ETag headers especially in mempool responses

4

Also support the `If-None-Match` and `If-Modified-Since` _request_ headers, so the client can receive a 304 instead of the old data, saving everyone compute resources and bandwidth.

This complements the HTTP API stress testing issue https://github.com/decred/dcrdata/issues/913 It's important to test with something as close as possible to production. This means N wallet (e.g. Exodus) connections. Clearly not...

Need postgresql backup and restore scripts

The /dev folder should have scripts to backup and restore the PostgreSQL database, with matching data from ~/.dcrdata/data/net

txscript.ComputePkScript incorrectly assumes P2WSH

2

When using `txscript.ComputePkScript` with any witness data that is not a P2WPKH, it is assumed to be P2WSH: https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/blob/31791ba4dc6ef913b1e8eb7bfb6746b1a118e405/txscript/pkscript.go#L253-L262 However, this will return an incorrect pkScript for anything but P2WSH...
