  • Planned steps to address delay in the launch of testnet-2
    • Release testnet-2 incrementally
    • Revisit how we understand the blockers and are dedicating development effort to them

Risks to code completion for Mercury

  • Addition of work in Rholang to address bloat in the tuplespace. 

Consensus

  •  in review. This is part of the solution to resolving conflicting blocks observed with cost accounting.
  • Draft PR in for 
  • PRs in review to complete the delivery of methods needed to build validator bonding/unbonding and rewards. 

Rholang

  • Resolution identified for two bugs that prevent the interpreter from stopping when an error occurs. 
  • First of two planned PRs in review for 
  • Reviewing work needed to complete cost accounting.

RNode

  • Work in progress to resolve  so that RNode operators can use a password protected key pair anytime a key is needed.
  • Node and SRE teams continuing the investigation of testnet issues observed late last week and through the weekend. The issues included nodes stopping without warning and not related to errors that would generate heap dumps at the time of death.
    • Completed work to provide more detailed metrics.
    • Running tests in testing networks
  • Investigation for  revealed the RevGenerator contract to be the bottleneck. Next steps are to run benchmarks in Rholang to further investigate the issue..

RSpace

  • PR review to deliver peek to Rholang. 
  • Work in progress investigate performance of RSpace. 
  • Draft PR in review for  as part of the effort to optimize how source for produce and consume is stored.
