Before: blocks were cloned prior to being serialized and returned to the
get_successors
caller.After: an
Arc
to the block is stored instead, and cloning doesn't happen (serialization does not need ownership).Block responses can get pretty large (~2MB), and cloning them take a long time. This is part of an effort to make the adapter able to process Testnet4 requests within the 50ms timeout from consensus.
