Optimize Gas Usage for Mass Delegation in test/governance/utils/Votes.test.js

techvoyagerX opened this issue · 0 comments

🧐 Motivation

Currently, the Votes.test.js file handles various voting modes, but it does not cover edge cases involving gas cost optimizations for voting delegation when many accounts are involved. In high-load scenarios, especially when a large number of votes or delegation transactions occur in a single block, the gas usage could be significant.

📝 Details

The test suite should include cases that simulate a high volume of accounts delegating votes in a short period of time. These cases would help assess the contract’s performance under stress and provide data on gas efficiency.

Suggested enhancements:

  1. Add tests with 100+ accounts performing delegation operations.
  2. Measure gas consumption for these scenarios, comparing standard delegation vs. cross-delegation.
  3. Include tests for scenarios where accounts attempt to delegate multiple times within the same block.

By incorporating these changes, we can better understand the contract’s behavior in more realistic, high-traffic situations and potentially identify gas optimization opportunities.
