…er arrival (#241) The ingest worker formed a batch from whatever try_recv found in the instant it woke. Arrivals are paced by the peer's page reads and the stream, so under a bulk transfer the batch collapsed to a few operations and nearly every operation paid its own write transaction (one redb commit and fsync each). Small sessions never notice; the 210-event bulk session does: on current main it fails in CI on every run with the initiator hitting its 30s deadline mid-transfer (src/log_sync.rs:793, Timeout(30s)) — the same mid-stream death #241 reported as 'connection lost: reset by peer' on the feature stack, where the retry hid it. When the initiator's deadline fires it closes the connection, which is the reset the responder sees. collect_batch now waits out a short grace (5ms, polled on the blocking worker thread) for more arrivals before committing a batch that is not full, so paced arrivals share one transaction. The wait ends early when the stream closes, so a session's last partial batch is not held back, and a lone arrival is delayed by at most the grace. Three network-free unit tests cover the collection: paced arrivals coalesce into one batch, a lone arrival is released after the grace, and a full batch stops at INGEST_BATCH headers.

Make the paced-arrivals test tolerant of scheduling delays.
The two 2 ms sleeps leave about 1 ms of margin within BATCH_GRACE. If the pacer runs late, collect_batch can correctly return before the third header arrives, and Line 872 fails. Rust does not guarantee that thread::sleep ends at the requested time. Use a test-specific, wider grace period while keeping the production grace at 5 ms. (doc.rust-lang.org)

collect_batch set its grace deadline once, at the first empty poll, and never restarted it. Any stream paced over more than BATCH_GRACE in total was cut back to a batch per gap — the exact per-operation write transactions the grace exists to prevent — once the first 5ms window lapsed. CI run 39096263946 confirms the effect end to end: the bulk session still ends in Timeout(30s). The grace is now an idle wait: each arrival clears the deadline, so arrivals that keep landing inside the grace of the previous one share one write transaction however long their run spans. New regression test paces 8 arrivals 2ms apart (16ms span, over 3x the grace): it collected a batch of 3 before this change and collects all 8 after. The three existing batch tests still pass.

Cap total arrivals in collect_batch.
An admitted peer can send body-bearing operations. The vendored LogSync sender sends each operation with its optional body. Each received body becomes Arrival::Refused.
collect_batch removes arrivals from the bounded channel, so channel capacity does not cap the local Vec. Each refusal resets the idle grace, but only headers count toward INGEST_BATCH. A peer can therefore grow the batch beyond 256 entries and delay valid headers until the refusal stream pauses. The 60-second session deadline limits the duration, but it does not provide the intended collection bound.
Suggested fix
-/// The batch holds at most [`INGEST_BATCH`] headers (refusals do not count towards the cap, as before). Everything
+/// The batch holds at most [`INGEST_BATCH`] arrivals. Everything

Problem
test_a_bulk_session_moves_every_event_across_pagesfails in CI on current main on every recent run — e.g.nix flake checkfor main@e1f99237 (run 39090664953) and for a3e87e6 (run 39090489139), in both theid-ciandid-test-unitderivations:1485 passed, this 1 failed. Small sessions (≤13 events) pass in the same runs; the 210-event session is the one that dies mid-transfer — the initiator's deadline firing and closing the connection is also what a responder sees as the 'connection lost: reset by peer' #241 was filed for.
Cause
The ingest worker formed a batch from whatever
try_recvfound in the instant it woke. Arrivals are paced by the peer's page reads and the stream, not by the worker, so under a bulk transfer the batch collapsed to a few operations — and every batch is one write transaction (one redb commit + fsync). The receiving side therefore paid a commit for nearly every operation, and ingest throughput, not the transfer, decided whether the session beat its deadline.Solution
collect_batchnow waits out a short grace (5 ms, polled on the blocking worker thread) for more arrivals before committing a batch that is not full, so paced arrivals share one transaction. The wait ends early when the stream closes, so a session's last partial batch is not held back, and a lone arrival is delayed by at most the grace.Verification
INGEST_BATCH) pass, plusstore_traitstests: 14/14.cargo check --lib,--lib --no-default-features,--lib --tests✓; rustfmt clean on the file.nix flake check: the bulk test is the signal. If it still times out with batches coalesced, the bottleneck is elsewhere and the failure stays reproducible for the next step — no retry was added, per the issue.Summary by CodeRabbit
