Hi

We have multiple applications that write/fetch data from FDB and we have recently started seeing **RecordCoreException** timeout exceptions in those applications. We use a `MetaDataVersionStampStoreStateCacheFactory` and would like to understand the cause for this increase in timeouts.

**FDB Versions used:**

> api(“org.foundationdb:fdb-java:6.1.8”)  
> api(“org.foundationdb:fdb-record-layer-core:2.8.110.0”)  
> api(“org.foundationdb:fdb-extensions:2.8.110.0”)

> FoundationDB 6.2 (v6.2.15)  
> source version 20566f2ff06a7e822b30e8cfd91090fbd863a393  
> protocol fdb00b062010001

**Error stack trace:**

Just for those looking at this post in the future, I believe this was found to be a networking issue between the FDB client and the FDB server which resulted in these timeouts (if this is the same as [FDB TimeoutExceptions degrading application performance - #2 by ajames](https://forums.foundationdb.org/t/fdb-timeoutexceptions-degrading-application-performance/3312/2)).
