What changed?
Why?
One path in AddTask in matching requires persist the task to DB, and may be retried for up to 30 second regardless what context timeout in specified for the AddTask call.
On history side, the specified context timeout is only 3s, after will retry the AddTask operation if failed. This mismatch of retry policy will cause matching to persist much more tasks than needed, and made the situation worse when service busy error happens.
By enforcing the context timeout when persisting tasks, we removed mismatching in two different retry policies and can reduce the number of tasks persisted by matching.
How did you test it?
Unit test
Potential risks
More matching Add task error may happen as now context timeout is enforced.
