2 cycles vs ~5 cycles is still nice improvement plus its more deterministic (but not that fast in optimistic case; better in pessimistic case) than `if` appraoch and probably easier to "invent" and reason about. Definitely not tha

Yes you need, but the initial problem here were sequential loads from L1 into registers.

You can utilize MLP (memory-level parallelism) and reduce memory latency by reading whole 8 bytes of next_j at every iteration. Just do something like `uint64_t packed_next_j = *(uint64_t*)(&next_j[i])` and then just shift right to find

Its one of the options. Other is sniping new pools and copy trading. Im trying to develop zero/same-slot tx landing with shredstreams first, because its basically needed to be competitive.

I would say that in most cases you dont need fancy algorithms and data structures, you just need to stop treating RAM as a rough notebook. Allocating in a loop, not reusing buffers and pointer chasing are a performance killers and are quite

Software engineering is a domain on its own, just a technical, not a business one. Good luck with looking for a once in a million data race or deadlock bugs. Good luck with synchronizing system distributed over a whole globe. And good luck

You dont need to measure the code complexity, you can completely hallucinate those numbers if you feel that code is too complex and then watch how LLM will respond.

If you're looking for feedback and ideas you can just ask ChatGPT. Or maybe you just crave human interaction and doing something together with other human?
