github 0xPolygon/bor v2.3.4

2 days ago

Bor v2.3.4 is a major release containing upstream merge of geth v1.16.1 along with several improvements and bug fixes.

The upstream merge from geth enables support of archive mode in combination with the path based storage scheme (PBSS enabled by --state.scheme=path) reducing the size of archive data by significant margins. We're syncing some nodes internally for some benchmarks and numbers which will be released once the node is fully synced to the tip.

It also has several improvements over the new stateless client majorly including the online pruning for witnesses (which also works on full and snap nodes which joins on wit protocol) and the new block pruner (which only works for stateless clients).

Note: Similar to geth, one drawback is that eth_getProof is not supported for historical blocks and can only serve state proofs of last 128 blocks.
Note2: The witness pruner is automatically enabled since witness is a heavy load and there is not reason to keep it stored. In the other hand the block pruner is just available (and also automatic enabled) for stateless client, aiming to reduce even more the disks requirements.
