    A slight improvement in terms of stability.<br>
    <br>
    Crash numbers have decreased a bit, but better yet, the crash
    "quality" has improved. Backtraces make sense again.<br>
    <br>
    Some new backtraces let me check the notification concurrency
    handling again, and I have found and resolved two more issues.<br>
    <br>
    I haven't seen any websocket data corruptions with the new version,
    but the overall wifi performance has clearly degraded.<br>
    <br>
    One user reported wifi connections previously working very reliably
    now sometimes drop without apparent reason.<br>
    <br>
    Overall I think we should keep the workaround and hope Espressif
    will solve this asap.<br>

                This looks like the bug hits the wifi or lwip stack now,

                I just also tried running the test project with that 2
                MB allocation and starting the test task on core 0: the

                core 0 can only work with the lower 2 MB and core 1 only

                      Yes, I suspect there is something in there related

                      as 2MB/2MB, and (b) we run code on both cores
                      anyway. We may have just fixed the test case
