Stalled WebSocket sends are now detected instead of hanging

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal2
Session Transport

A WebSocket whose outgoing buffer never drains is now detected after 60 seconds instead of hanging.

What

The WebSocket transport gained a 60 second send stall timeout (sendStallTimeoutMs: 60000) plus receive-side high and low watermarks and a queued-download byte report. A socket whose outgoing buffer never drains is now identified rather than waiting forever.

Details
  • When the send path pauses to wait for a drain, it records how much was buffered and when the wait started, which is what the timeout is measured against.
  • sendPauseAfterPendingBytes defaults to 0.
  • No gate; this applies to all WebSocket traffic.
