I don’t know if it necessary happens to all the transports, but are seeing periodic delays in messages when using the Yahoo part of the gateway plugin:

We are seeing this problem in both our test and production environments, so if anybody can relate or let us know what’s going (read: jadestorm please help us!), it would be appreciated. The test was done by rapidly sending a message to and from ybroker2 and CrudeGuy. The above table is CrudeGuy’s view of the convo, and the bottom set is ybroker2’s view of the convo. Notice the difference, especially with the message “yikes”. This was on 3.3.2 and Gateway vers. 1.1.2. We are going to do a test with 1.1.3a very shortly. If we find anything in the tcpdumps that signals that the OS itself is slow in receiving it, we’ll post that too.
