Summary
This update serves as the first performance report for the 5 Lido x SSV and 5 Lido x Obol Super Clusters active on mainnet via the Simple DVT Module. Given very strong performance results, it is proposed that the key limits for both of these cohorts be increased to 200 validators as outlined in the Expansion Proposal.
Performance Analysis
The performance monitoring period for the 10 Super Clusters began on September 24th, the day that all 10 clusters had active validators.
During this time, as per Rated, average uptime across the 5 Obol clusters stands at 99.91%, aggregate Block Proposal Success Rate of 100%, and Average Validator Effectiveness is 98.54%. For the 5 SSV clusters, average uptime stands at 99.99%, aggregate Block Proposal Success Rate of 100%, and Average Validator Effectiveness is 98.41%.This compares to the 30 day overall Ethereum validator set performance with an average Validator Effectiveness of 98.16%.
In the case of the Obol clusters, one block proposal was missed between the performance pull and publication of this report and an analysis is taking place. However, given the 23 successful proposals during the monitoring period, it is suggested that key limits remain on track to be increased.
For a detailed overview of cluster level metrics & the list of validator keys, see the analysis:
Proposed Next Steps
It is proposed that the key limits for the Super Clusters be raised to a maximum of 200 validators each until the next performance monitoring period (which will end no earlier than 21 days after the publication date of this update).
The relevant Easy Track motions for these key limit raises would be communicated in this thread and would follow the default approach of being veteoable by LDO holders over a 72 hour period.
This begins a 7 day discussion period for the DAO to consider the performance report and proposal to raise the key limits for the Super Clusters to 200 as described in the Expansion Proposal.
