perf: speed up monetizationstart#115
Conversation
In ilp-protocol-stream, `Stream`s emit `"outgoing_money"` events before `connection.totalDelivered` is updated. This resulted in the extension ignoring the first `outgoing_money` event, since it mistakenly assumed that no money was delivered. In my tests, this shortened the time-to-`monetizationstart` from 2500-2800ms down to 500-700ms.

Is this speedup also after applying optimizations like exchange rate and packet size hints or have those not gone in yet? I would be curious if they can get the time down even further |
|
It's without, I think. I tested enabling them and they don't make as much of a different as I expected, so I'm actually looking into that next. |
|
Is this fix applicable to the oauth script also? right now the two have different modules that send on streams |
|
I didn't think of that. Yes, I think it is applicable, I'll update the PR. |
| return new Promise((resolve, reject) => { | ||
| const onMoney = (sentAmount: string) => { | ||
| this.onMoney(sentAmount) | ||
| // Wait until `setImmediate` so that `connection.totalDelivered` has been updated. |

Maybe ilp-protocol-stream should be updated to set that beforehand ?

Since updating the hold may not change the amount that isn't desirable.

Can you elaborate on that?
Note that I'm not a STREAM/ILP expert.

You're right, stream could set the amount beforehand, but I think it would qualify as a breaking change (albeit just barely). I've made a note-to-self to include that change the next time I make a breaking stream change. I don't think it warrants one on its own since it's so simple to work around.

Ok, so outgoing_money is when money is actually delivered right? Or am I wrong there?
It's definitely a change but one could reasonably argue it's actually a bug and the current behavior is incorrect. Would it really actually "break" any client code or simply give more correct results ?

Yes, outgoing_money is the notification that money has been successfully delivered on a stream.

@sublimator Testing against a local server may not work because the packets would arrive so quickly that the delay may be too small to notice. I was testing against coil's staging server. |
|
actually, the delay was noticeable on local server if that means anything
to you!?
will PM you to discuss soon
