Balance changing

What I do is I farm until my wallet gets over 1 XCH in it.
Then I send a 1 XCH coin to my cold wallet.
Well today after the pool payout I seen that I had around 1.14 XCH in my wallet.
I then sent 1 XCH to my cold wallet. The confirmation only took a few minutes, but then my balance says I have 0.90 XCH? I checked the cold wallet address. the 1 XCH did get sent and arrived in the cold wallet.
Why do I now have more XCH?

I inspected the transactions in my wallet. I can now see some transactions that were not there before I sent the 1XCH to the cold wallet.
The wallet seems to have missed showing received transactions previously, and now has found them??

I think in the spirit of resource management, they try not to have all of the functions polling everything all the time; it’d bloat the heck out of it, especially for a farming machine that’s always online anyway and doesn’t need minute by minute plays. You could play with the “Derivation Index” under settings and see if that helps, but I haven’t tweaked that myself (I only have pool payments once a day so I don’t need a firm balance in excess of stock accuracy).

I shut down my chia wallet today and rebooted my system (Debian 11)
After I started my wallet and it synced again it now shows the expected 0.14xxx XCH.
I still dont know why before the restart it had the wrong balance. It was synced. I am in farming mode not wallet mode.
Edit: I had tried increasing the derivation value yesterday. I set it as high as I could. I have lots of transactions, over 31,000 maybe that is a factor.

Should max_subscribe_items check be bypassed if is_in_network?

I spent the last few days troubleshooting a broken wallet. The derivation index …is over 20,000 and it has 7 CAT wallets, so we are well over the default `max_subscribe_items` limit according to this issue: https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain/issues/14002#issuecomment-1344654073 I noticed all kinds of weird behavior, especially offer files with multiple CATs. Some times some of the offer transactions would show up, sometimes not. Sometimes they would confirm, sometimes they'd be "stuck" forever. Sometimes restarting the wallet would work, sometimes I'd have to delete transactions and try again. There was nothing in the logs about going past this limit, but I methodically tried different settings in the config.yaml file (I thought it might be timeouts at first) until I figured out that this is the one that did it. By changing it from the default of `200000` to `2000000`, my wallet can sync from empty and new offers/transactions all show up correctly as expected. I wonder if these issues are related: #13963 #14002 After digging into the code a bit more, I have some suggestions. First, I think this error should be logged. It doesn't seem to get logged or throw an exception, which means the client has no idea what is happening and we get the weird behavior as described above. https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain/blob/dfd888dc58e86f2a9b482912b2795ba813235e0f/chia/full_node/full_node_api.py#L1501 Secondly: I don't necessarily think that the default should be increased, as we don't want our poor full-nodes getting DOS'd with external wallet subscriptions BUT I think it is fair to assume that a local wallet running against the local trusted full node should not be subject to this max, similar to the `is_in_network` & `is_localhost` check done for max connections here: https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain/blob/dfd888dc58e86f2a9b482912b2795ba813235e0f/chia/server/server.py#L331 This would mean that the rare large wallets wouldn't be limited here by default when talking to their own full node, but untrusted wallets that connect from outside would still be unable to DOS us. I am not confident enough yet in my python fu to know if this is the correct approach, or if I'm missing something else entirely. Thanks!
