Are missing blocks and transactions forwarded downstream?

[linuskendall]

If faithful doesn't have a block (i.e. the block is not among those available) does it forward getBlock downstream if the --proxy command is configured?

Same thing for a transaction that is not found? This is perhaps more dubious since a not found transaction might just mean it doesnt exist.

Yes, if it's configured to do so.

faithful-cli rpc --proxy=/path/to/proxy/solana-proxy.json /path/to/epochs/

solana-proxy.json:

{
	"target": "https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com",
	"headers": {
		"My-Header": "My-Value"
	},
	"proxyFailedRequests": true
}

Yes. Just to be sure, anything that isn't a success, is considered a failure and retried on the fallback rpc.

Sounds like this is not needed anymore. Can we close it @linuskendall @gagliardetto?
