Summary
Often messages are received on a stream after they have already been synced. This can happen when you have multiple streams open, or when you are processing your own messages.
Processing messages is expensive and requires locking the database for a transaction. We're better off skipping these duplicates if we can. This does that by checking if the last synced ID is > the ID of the message.
