Aggregation Queue

ReactionCounter & ReactionTotal aggregates updates synchronously when you have QUEUE_CONNECTION=sync defined in .env file. On large databases this operations are expensive and could lead to long wait time and browser hanging connection.

There are 2 listeners which are responsible for aggregates updates:

• Cog\Laravel\Love\Reactant\Listeners\IncrementAggregates
• Cog\Laravel\Love\Reactant\Listeners\DecrementAggregates

They are waiting for ReactionHasBeenRemoved or ReactionHasBeenAdded events being dispatched and updates aggregates values in database.

Setup queue connection in your application and updates will be executed on background. This happens because those listeners implements Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue interface.
