'''An in-memory UTXO cache, representing all changes to UTXO state
since the last DB flush.
We want to store millions of these in memory for optimal
performance during initial sync, because then it is possible to
spend UTXOs without ever going to the database (other than as an
entry in the address history, and there is only one such entry per
TX not per UTXO). So store them in a Python dictionary with
binary keys and values.
Key: TX_HASH + TX_IDX (32 + 2 = 34 bytes)
Value: HASHX + TX_NUM + VALUE (11 + 4 + 8 = 23 bytes)
That's 57 bytes of raw data in-memory. Python dictionary overhead
means each entry actually uses about 205 bytes of memory. So
almost 5 million UTXOs can fit in 1GB of RAM. There are
approximately 42 million UTXOs on bitcoin mainnet at height
433,000.
Semantics:
add: Add it to the cache dictionary.
spend: Remove it if in the cache dictionary. Otherwise it's
been flushed to the DB. Each UTXO is responsible for two
entries in the DB. Mark them for deletion in the next
cache flush.
The UTXO database format has to be able to do two things efficiently:
1. Given an address be able to list its UTXOs and their values
so its balance can be efficiently computed.
2. When processing transactions, for each prevout spent - a (tx_hash,
idx) pair - we have to be able to remove it from the DB. To send
notifications to clients we also need to know any address it paid
to.
To this end we maintain two "tables", one for each point above:
1. Key: b'u' + address_hashX + tx_idx + tx_num
Value: the UTXO value as a 64-bit unsigned integer
2. Key: b'h' + compressed_tx_hash + tx_idx + tx_num
Value: hashX
The compressed tx hash is just the first few bytes of the hash of
the tx in which the UTXO was created. As this is not unique there
will be potential collisions so tx_num is also in the key. When
looking up a UTXO the prefix space of the compressed hash needs to
be searched and resolved if necessary with the tx_num. The
collision rate is low (<0.1%).
