I have to pause and restore placemint to re-allocate all the tables to all slots, and the re-allocation seems random(?)
is there a way to avoid the #2 scenario? thanks!
I was doing some research on this issue. it seems to me that the problem is related to the some transactional problem; it seems that "refresh" event is triggered before the previous "refresh" event is completed. the event for the ripple forwarded table is conflicted with the event for the new table. if we can somehow let the previous refresh event complete first before another refresh event starts, we can fix this problem.
one workaround seems to set the refresh time a little longer, say 1000ms. it mitigates the issue a little, but it still happens occasionally.
