## Problem `BinaryTrie.Commit` unconditionally walked every resolved in-memory node and flushed it into the `NodeSet`, producing one Pebble write per resolved internal + stem node on every block — even when the node's on-disk blob was bitwise identical to the previous commit. On a warm 400M-state workload this meant tens of thousands of redundant 65-byte writes per block, compounding Pebble compaction pressure on every commit. The existing `mustRecompute` flag tracks *hash* staleness, not *disk-blob* staleness: after `Hash()` completes, `mustRecompute` is cleared even though the fresh blob has not been persisted. It is therefore insufficient for a skip-flush optimization. ## Fix Mirror the MPT committer pattern (`trie/committer.go:51-56`) by adding a `dirty` flag on `InternalNode` and `StemNode` with the semantics *the on-disk blob is stale*. The flag is: - set to `true` wherever the node is created or structurally modified (the same call sites that already set `mustRecompute = true`); - set to `false` only after the node has been passed to the `flushfn` inside `CollectNodes`; - left `false` on nodes produced by `DeserializeNodeWithHash`, matching the *loaded from disk, already persisted* semantics. `CollectNodes` short-circuits on `!dirty` subtrees. The propagation invariant (an ancestor of any dirty node is itself dirty) is already maintained by the existing `InsertValuesAtStem` / `Insert` paths, which now mirror every `mustRecompute = true` setter with a `dirty = true` setter. ## Benchmark New `BenchmarkCollectNodes_SparseWrite` measures commit cost when only one leaf changes between blocks — the common case for state updates. 10,000-stem trie, one-leaf modification + Commit per iteration, Apple M4 Pro: | | before | after | delta | |---|---|---|---| | time / op | 12,653,000 ns | 7,336 ns | **~1,725×** | | bytes / op | 107,224,740 B | 37,774 B | **~2,839×** | | allocs / op | 80,953 | 134 | **~604×** | End-to-end impact on a real workload depends on the resolved-footprint-to-dirty-path ratio; the new `TestBinaryTrieCommitIncremental` provides a structural regression guard (asserts that a Commit following a single-leaf modification flushes a root-to-leaf path, not the whole tree). --- Found all of this stuff while bloating my #34706 DB to make some benchmarks. And saw we were spending A LOT OF TIME on hashing. Hope this helps the perf a bit. Will rebase the flat-state PR on top of this once merged.
