I checked the syncing status, it returns false. I submitted transaction with a very high gas value but it takes long time to get completed. This is my local ropsten node:

I called contract method through web3.js to add struct(containing 2 string) to a list.

You have set the max gas to a high value, correct.

However, your gasPrice is actually 0. You're lucky that it's a testnet, and they still get mined. Transactions with a gasPrice of 0 will take months to be mined on the mainnet, if at all.

You need a gasPrice in addition to the gas parameter. For ropsten, even 1 gwei is enough. For the mainnet, 1-5 gwei works, depending on how busy the network is.

  • Thanks. Are transactions executed in the same order they are submitted ? Or they can be picked up(pending) in any order ?
