Optimize Phase0 Attestation Processing
Summary
Optimizes
epoch_processing::get_inclusion_delay_deltas()
by restructuring attestation processing flow, reducing epoch boundary block processing time by 88.8%.Problem
The original implementation iterates through all pending attestations for each validator, creating a significant performance bottleneck in
state_transition()
.Solution
Restructures attestation processing to perform a single pass through pending attestations:
Performance Impact
Tested at slot 3,200 (20,488 validators, 225 pending attestations):
Processing time: 1.81hrs → 12.2 minutes
8.93x faster
Testing
Verified correctness against reference implementation
Benchmarked with mainnet data at slot 3,200
