The Rated List

Duration: 00:17:32

Speaker: Chirag Mahaveer Parmar, hopinheimer

Type: Lightning Talk

Expertise: Intermediate

Event: Devcon

Date: Nov 2024

The Rated List construction aims to minimise the number of requests required to complete sampling in Data Availability Sampling (DAS) for Ethereum. This optimisation becomes especially critical in the context of Full DAS, as data production per slot is anticipated to far exceed the current Deneb-Cancun (Dencun) specifications. The Rated List attempts to improve rate of successful sampling against unfavourable network conditions there by reducing the bandwidth consumption of the overall network.

EVM Memory Repricing & Gentest

Memory is a critical resource that enables complex computations within the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The cost of using memory, designed to prevent its abuse, has not been revised since the inception of Ethereum. However, efficiency gains from hardware advancements and client code optimizations warrants periodic repricing of this cost. We explore possible ways to make memory more accessible.

Shadow Network Simulations

In my EPF project, I implemented Ethshadow, a configuration generator for simulating Ethereum networks using Shadow, and used it to research improvements to the current state of PeerDAS and to estimate the effects of IDONTWANT on node bandwidth. In this presentation, I will present my findings and make a case for testing using Ethshadow.

Verkle integration in reth

This talk concerns the presentation of EPF Project: Verkle integration in reth. The project comprised of replacing the current state-commitment structure in reth with verkle tries and other modifications for statelessness, including implementing EIPs such as EIP-4762: Statelessness gas cost changes (to REVM), EIP-6800: Ethereum State using a unified verkle trie, EIP-7709: Read BLOCKHASH from storage and update cost, and passing the associated execution-spec-test vectors designed for these EIPs.

Samba, a Besu Portal Client

A presentation about my experience participating in the EPF. Talking primarily about the project I worked on for the cohort and various obstacles that I faced along the way. I additionally aim to go into detail about where I see Samba going in the future and my role in that development.

PeerDAS metrics specifications

The PeerDAS Metrics Specifications help make testing more efficient and straightforward by creating standard metrics for Consensus clients. With a unified Grafana dashboard, teams can monitor performance in real-time, compare client data side by side, and quickly spot issues. This approach makes troubleshooting faster, supports research, and encourages teamwork, helping strengthen the Ethereum ecosystem and improve scalability.
