# Liveness issues
We know that some people reported having timeouts when putting some load on their Garage cluster.
On our production cluster that runs without pressure, we don't really observe this behaviour.
But when I wanted to start a benchmark created by Minio developers, I hit the same limit.
So I wanted to reproduce this behavior in a more controlled environment.
I thus chose to use mknet to emulate a simple network with close to zero latency but with a very small bandwidth, 1M. The idea is that the network will be the bottleneck, and not the CPU, the memory or the disk.
After a while, we quickly observe that the cluster is not reacting very well:
```
[nix-shell:/home/quentin/Documents/dev/deuxfleurs/mknet]# warp get --host=[fc00:9a7a:9e::1]:3900 --obj.size 100MiB --obj.randsize --duration=10m --concurrent 8 --objects 200 --access-key=GKc1e16da48142bdb95d98a4e4 --secret-key=c4ef5d5f7ee24ccae12a98912bf5b1fda28120a7e3a8f90cb3710c8683478b31

```
We observe many different types of error:
- [RPC] Timeout quorum errors, they are probably generated by a ping between nodes
- [RPC] Not connected error, after a timeout, a reconnection is not triggered directly
- [S3 Gateway] The gateway took to much time to answer and a timeout was triggered in the client
- [S3 Gateway] The S3 gateway closes the TCP connection before answering
As a first conclusion, we started to clearly reduce the scope of the problem by identifying that this undesirable behavior is triggered by a network bottleneck.
