The CoinGecko price, tickers and market chart and the exchange candle
GETs ran on the wallet's RPC worker, the same FIFO lane as balance,
history and sends. A slow or blocked endpoint held that lane for up to
10-12 s per price or ticker fetch and 2 x 30 s per chart or candle job,
and a wallet scan in turn delayed the price. At quit a hung GET held
shutdown until the 15 s watchdog cut teardown short.
They now run on their own RPCWorker thread; results are applied on the
main thread and wake the idle loop. A new util::httpGet takes a cancel
flag (checked by libcurl's progress callback), sets CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL and
returns the HTTP status and error; httpGetString wraps it. Shutdown sets
the flag, so queued GETs return at once and one in flight aborts within
about a second. The price uses a plain in-flight flag instead of the
connection-scoped refresh job, so a disconnect no longer throws away a
good in-flight price and leaves it loading until the next tick.
User-visible:
- chart and candle GETs use a 5 s connect / 20 s total timeout (were
15 s / 30 s);
- the price request goes through the shared GET: User-Agent
ObsidianDragon/1.0 (was DragonX-Wallet/1.0) and a 16 MiB reply cap;
- market fetches on connect start alongside the wallet refresh instead
of queuing behind it.
