Zerocopy data reader loses data

[ussefdesouky]

Is there an already existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Expected behavior

I expect that the data published by the writer will be received and read by the reader.

Current behavior

the writer publishes the data, but the the reader drops some of it.

Also why the reader sample not having the same address as the writer, they just share part of the address

So it nearly dropped 90 msgs, despite if I run the subscriber 100 msgs after the publisher the subscriber can get the first 100 msgs from the history.
Also the pool is not yet full as it has 530 samples.

Steps to reproduce

Down below you will find my writer profile, and the reader profile will be the same.

Fast DDS version/commit

2.11.2

Platform/Architecture

Other. Please specify in Additional context section.

Transport layer
