High level summary​

During the past week the team:

  • Incorporated minor improvements to the ChainSync client test (#529).
  • Documented tasks of a caught-up node (#1215), which can be useful for SPOs.
  • Tweag presented the last Genesis SoW to the Consensus team. The next steps are reviews and phased (opt-in) rollout.

Regarding the two problems found during UTXO-HD benchmarks, namely, increase in heap size (#1192) and a newly found race condition (#1193), #1208 fixed the race condition and was merged, however #1194 showed no improvements so it will not be merged yet.
