Delay in First SOC Upload After Node Startup

[nugaon]

Context

• Bee version: 2.2

Summary

After starting the node, the first Single Owner Chunk (SOC) upload takes an unusually long time. It appears that there might be a lock causing this delay, particularly around a specific debug log entry.

Expected behavior

The SOC upload should occur promptly after the node starts without significant delays.

Actual behavior

The first SOC upload after node startup is delayed significantly. The suspected cause is a lock around the following log entry:

"time"="2024-10-10 14:54:36.734229" "level"="debug" "logger"="node/salud" "msg"="computed" "avg_dur"=0.001058165 "pDur"=0.001001986 "pConns"=1 "network_radius"=0 "neighborhood_radius"=0 "batch_commitment"=191889408

Steps to reproduce

1. Start the node with the usual configuration.
2. Attempt to upload a SOC immediately after the node becomes operational.
3. Observe the delay in the upload and check the node's log for the debug entry mentioned above.

Possible solution

Investigate the locking mechanism around the log entry point to determine if it is necessary or if it can be optimized to allow faster processing. This might involve reviewing the synchronization strategy around the shared resources involved in the SOC upload process.
