We had some ancient legacy code called
state.ManagedState
that was supposed to be a "virtual, in-memory" clone of astate.StateDB
for the transaction pool. This managed state had a lot of weird unused code (probably originally it was meant to be something else). The only thing the txpool needed was to set and get nonces.Not only did
state.ManagedState
have more code than needed, it also directly calledSetNonce
on the underlying state database, which triggered the state journal. With the correct circumstances, this resulted in memory overhead that could lead to a crash if no chain head arrived fast enough.This PR murders the managed state altogether, and replaces it with a tiny, simple construct with only the things we need for the txpool.
