Some Expirements with Episub
The gossipsub simulator now has experimental support for episub -- see also the discussion in the specs repo.
The episub extension comes with two new control messages, CHOKE
and
UNCHOKE
. Choking a peer means instructing it to not directly
forward messages, except self-published through flood publish, even
though it remains in the mesh; instead the peer sends gossip.
Unchoking a peer means instructing it to resume forwarding messages.
