> h3. *Cause Analysis:*
> Both exceptions occur due to race conditions between:
> # Leader writes log entry into memory cache and disk
> # Leader sends log entry to followers via {{GrpcLogAppender}}
> The current implementation allows log replication to attempt accessing
> entries before they're written. This is evidenced by:
> * The successful prevention of errors through experimental sleep delays in
> critical code paths
