	// can easily eat into the internode bandwidth. This function would be mostly
	// TX saturating, however there are situations where a RX might also saturate.
	// To avoid these problems we must split the work at scale. With 1000 node
	// setup becoming a reality we must try to shard the work properly such as
	// pick 10 nodes that precisely can send those 100 requests the first node

We sometimes reject contributions due to the low quality of the submission
since low-quality submissions tend to take unreasonable effort to review
properly. Quality is rather subjective so it is hard to describe exactly how to
avoid this, but there are some basic steps you can take to reduce the chances
of rejection. Follow the guidelines listed above when preparing your changes.
You should add tests that correspond with your changes, and your PR should pass
