On Plasma (XPL), delayed responses can be a weird kind of failure because nothing looks broken—blocks keep moving, your app just feels sleepy. I’ve seen it happen when an RPC node is quietly lagging behind the network head, often from basic stuff like CPU, disk, or high latency to consensus endpoints. With stablecoin payments getting real usage and more exchanges and apps wiring Plasma into wallets and payouts, that “few seconds” suddenly matters. The fix is mostly unglamorous: monitor sync height, latency, and database health, and treat RPC reliability as part of the product.
