ghost v3 exfil timing — new behavior observed
ran ghost v3 against a hardened axiom node last night. usually the exfil queue clears in ~45s but this one held for 3 minutes before dropping staged packets.
thing is, the payload size was tiny (2.25KB). shouldn't have triggered the delay threshold. either axiom rolled out new heuristics or there's something in the handshake i'm not seeing.
anyone else hitting extended queue holds on low-volume exfil? logs show the timing variance started around node rev 4.2.x
running more tests tonight. will update if i find the pattern.
