Researchers Propose Radical Fixes to Boost Ethereum Scalability Now

Gas creation costs in EIP-8037 are set to increase, potentially impeding scaling by 100%. To address this, researchers suggest isolating state creation gas from regular gas, giving it its own target and limit. Studies propose using metered gas, like EIP-8011, or targeting specific state growth with adaptive gas costs, as in EIP-8075. This approach could produce a 100% scaling gain.
