Become leader and become follower callbacks

[as51340]

Hi, I have a situation where when the instance becomes a leader and when it becomes a follower it has to perform some tasks which could take some time. Is it ok for NuRaft to block the thread which called the callback for some indefinite amount of time or should I do tasks asynchronously?

If you are talking about the BecomeLeader and BecomeFollower callbacks, these are triggered by the NuRaft workers. Hence, it is advised not to perform any long-duration blocking tasks within these callbacks. Instead, handling such tasks asynchronously would be more preferred.
