eth_getBlockReceipts: performance issue

[AlexeyKrasnoperov]

Describe the bug

I request ethGetBlockReceipts method.
Forest responds in 425 ms, while Lotus returns the same response in 28 ms.

To reproduce

Curl request:

curl -X POST -w '\nTotal: %{time_total}s\n' http://localhost:2345/rpc/v1 \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "eth_getBlockReceipts",
  "params": [
    "0x4B75EC"
  ],
  "id": 1
}'

Response

Measure performance

Download and setup the filecoin-benchmark-suite.

git clone https://github.com/ChainSafe/filecoin-benchmark-suite.git
cd filecoin-benchmark-suite
npm install

Generate fresh methods request definitions.

npm run build-requests

Benchmark the method.

k6 run -e K6_RPC_URL=http://localhost:2345/rpc/v1 -e K6_METHOD=eth_getBlockReceipts tests/single_method.js --duration 30s --vus 20

Expected behaviour

Forest responds in <= 28 ms.

Environment (please complete the following information):

• Hardware
  • 12 cores CPU, 32Gb RAM

I also noticed that with the above mentioned params Forest on staging returns not found, but Lotus (also on our staging) returns proper results. I didn't notice such behavior before. It might be a bug, but I'm not yet sure.

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"error":{"code":404,"message":"Not Found"}}

UPD: it returns not found error even on

curl -X POST https://.../ \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "eth_blockNumber",
  "params": [],
  "id": 1
}'

[AlexeyKrasnoperov]

The performance is still not good.

[AlexeyKrasnoperov]

Response time on the current benchmarks server is around 6-10 seconds, while Lotus responds in 0.5 seconds.
