An issue with the size of an inventory announcement was reported on Zulip¹.

Building the set for the announcement has no smart heuristics for which repositories are announced. This means that the node may never announce a new repository it has added, or more important (according the node operator) repositories. On top of this, I believe that the announcement of the inventory sets the Filter to that exact set on receiving nodes.

We need to figure out a smarter way of informing nodes of inventories that exceed the size limits we currently impose.
