1. Create dependency resolution system: - Scan incoming buffer for messages with missing dependencies - Track age of pending messages - Request missing messages from peers - Prioritize older pending messages - Handle timeout/failure cases for unresolvable dependencies 2. Implement unacknowledged message management: - Track age of unacknowledged outgoing messages - Implement priority-based rebroadcast strategy - Handle messages that exceed retry limits - Manage buffer size through pruning old messages - Track successful redelivery attempts
