so we are just going to ignore Tron? but its kind of hilarious that Tron tried for years to be considered not an Eth clone "we're totally differen't, not a 100% compatible EVM" and now the market only wants Eth clones and barely anybody knows Tron is one

yep. pretty much all the "high tps" EVMs have an issue with the node software, it is very strange. barely anybody is even bothering to work on this layer. I know some coders and arbitragers that modify the geth software themselves so that it is parsing less data and more efficiently, so they can snipe transactions for frontrunning, but they don't share it.
