Why do all nodes run blockvoting strategy about quorum HOT 7 CLOSED

Thanks for posting this issue, this is currently being reviewed.

from quorum.

From a consensus point of view there are no resources wasted. There is an internal event mechanism that dictates when a new vote tx must be broadcasted or a new block must be created. When that event is raised the vote/block maker logic is notified. That logic will check if the node is configured as a voter or block maker node. And if not it does nothing.

But doesn't that mean non blockmaker nodes are applying new transactions (executing) to the pending state, only to redo this once a new block comes in. Shouldn't only block makers be building on the pending state?

The non blockmakers still need the pending state to validate any transactions submitted through them, no?

Where can I learn about your complete consensus strategy ?
