Both governance and AH indexers were crashing at pruned blocks (RPC
nodes only retain last ~256 blocks of state). Bumping startBlock to
near-tip allows clean indexing forward from current state.
- governance: 57100 → 1228500 (relay tip - ~200)
- AH: 582592 → 1029200 (AH tip - ~200)
Loss: governance 57100-1228500 (mostly empty, pre-governance-activity);
AH 582592-1029200 (~410k blocks of staking/transfer data — postgres
state will be dropped, accept loss).
Long-term fix: provision Asset Hub archive node so reindexing from
genesis is possible without recurring pruning issues.
RPC nodes run in pruned mode (~256 blocks state history).
Setting startBlock to recent blocks ensures all required
state is available. Old blocks have no significant user
transactions to index.
