Research direction

Start by reproducing the repeated writes to the jetpack_callables_sync_checksum option on a multisite WordPress installation, using the reported WordPress and Jetpack versions where possible. Trace what triggers the write and verify that the option no longer adds identical rows every minute while preserving the required sync behavior.
