Change iri network gossip to use STING

kwek20 opened this issue · comments

Description

IRI gossip currently using a single packet. With #1794 iri will support split up gossip. We should change our pipeline to make use of this feature.

Motivation

More specific requesting results in less network usage and faster syncing time

Requirements

  • Change the pipeline to use TX_REQUEST and TX_BROADCAST instead of TRANSACTION_GOSSIP
  • Change transactionRequester to use correct protocol method

Open Questions (optional)

How are we handling TipsRequester? (probably remove it)

We should test with and without tiprequester and decide if we should remove it
