perf(p2p/conn): Buffer secret connection writes (backport #3346)#3485
Conversation
component of #3198 , this PR buffers writes. What happens is secret conn will often receive a write of (say) 65kb. But it will then split this into 64 1024 byte frames. It does a write on each frame, which is a syscall write. Then starts the next frame. Instead here, we buffer these writes, and do a single syscall write at the end. I'll come back with benchmarks from running on mainnet. The baseline for this is netconn.Write taking 33% of the time in sendroutine.   We should do something similar for reads, but due to how the evil_secret_connection test makes non-black-box use of conn, that will require notable test refactors. --- #### PR checklist - [ ] Tests written/updated - [x] Changelog entry added in `.changelog` (we use [unclog](https://github.com/informalsystems/unclog) to manage our changelog) - [ ] Updated relevant documentation (`docs/` or `spec/`) and code comments - [x] Title follows the [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) spec --------- Co-authored-by: Anton Kaliaev <anton.kalyaev@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Daniel <daniel.cason@informal.systems> (cherry picked from commit 8422f57)

We should do something similar for reads, but due to how the evil_secret_connection test makes non-black-box use of conn, that will require notable test refactors.
