banteg's 11-byte EVM party trick: 16.78M gas projects to ~10TB of opcode trace
banteg · x · 2026-09-15
banteg breaks down an 11-byte EVM construction that expands memory then runs the cheapest possible loop, causing full-memory opcode traces to copy the same bytes millions of times — projecting 10TB of uncompressed trace at 16.78M gas.
