Thanks for the report. Does that mean that we're filtering the broken
pipe errors out in that test case? I'd expect the test case to fail if
these logs showed up, without needing someone to modify it.

It sounds like this patch just makes the bug less likely (perhaps by
virtue of sending less transactions).

Are you able to tell us a bit more about your setup and why you're
able to reproduce it?
I have only been able to reproduce the broken pipe issue on build
systems like travis where the underlying CPU resource is shared with
other users, and I suspect they're using nested virtualization which
can exacerbate certain types of failures. I had been assuming that
this is related to why it fails.
