this is an insane development
when Kevin F Bowers first demonstrated 1.2M TPS transaction ingestion at Breakpoint 2022, seventy two (72) verify tiles were used to handle the incoming traffic
fast forward four years to now, with the improvements the Mithril team has found during their client development work, 1M TPS ingestion can be done on ~8 verify tiles.
this, in my opinion, eliminates the need to consider FPGA sigverify.
i am currently working on getting these improvements upstreamed in agave and firedancer's respective crypto libraries as soon as possible.
