From 335ebb21ccc0ae906169f21dcfc456c869bdd301 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Quah <8349537+squahtx@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2022 12:39:23 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Faster room joins: avoid blocking when pulling events with missing prevs (#13355) Avoid blocking on full state in `_resolve_state_at_missing_prevs` and return a new flag indicating whether the resolved state is partial. Thread that flag around so that it makes it into the event context.
