This repo was made to document of all of the gas optimizations that I have come across / experimented with. Each optimization has a brief explanation with a code snippet. This document is for internal purposes but I might make it public someday for others that might benefit from it as well.
You can use selfbalance()
instead of address(this).balance
when getting your contract's balance of ETH to save gas. Additionally, you can use balance(address)
instead of address.balance()
when getting an external contract's balance of ETH.
contract GasTest is DSTest {
Contract0 c0;
Contract1 c1;
Contract2 c2;
Contract3 c3;
function setUp() public {
c0 = new Contract0();
c1 = new Contract1();
c2 = new Contract2();
c3 = new Contract3();
}
function testGas() public {
c0.addressInternalBalance();
c1.assemblyInternalBalance();
c2.addressExternalBalance(address(this));
c3.assemblyExternalBalance(address(this));
}
}
contract Contract0 {
function addressInternalBalance() public returns (uint256) {
return address(this).balance;
}
}
contract Contract1 {
function assemblyInternalBalance() public returns (uint256) {
assembly {
let c := selfbalance()
mstore(0x00, c)
return(0x00, 0x20)
}
}
}
contract Contract2 {
function addressExternalBalance(address addr) public {
uint256 bal = address(addr).balance;
bal++;
}
}
contract Contract3 {
function assemblyExternalBalance(address addr) public {
uint256 bal;
assembly {
bal := balance(addr)
}
bal++;
}
}

Use ++i
instead of i++
. This is especially useful in for loops but this optimization can be used anywhere in your code. You can also use unchecked{++i;}
for even more gas savings but this will not check to see if i
overflows. For extra safety if you are worried about this, you can add a require statement after the loop checking if i
is equal to the final incremented value. For best gas savings, use inline assembly, however this limits the functionality you can achieve. For example you cant use Solidity syntax to internally call your own contract within an assembly block and external calls must be done with the call()
or delegatecall()
instruction. However when applicable, inline assembly will save much more gas.

When defining storage variables, make sure to declare them in ascending order, according to size. When multiple variables are able to fit into one 256 bit slot, this will save storage size and gas during runtime. For example, if you have a bool
, uint256
and a bool
, instead of defining the variables in the previously mentioned order, defining the two boolean variables first will pack them both into one storage slot since they only take up one byte of storage.

Mark data types as calldata
instead of memory
where possible. This makes it so that the data is not automatically loaded into memory. If the data passed into the function does not need to be changed (like updating values in an array), it can be passed in as calldata
. The one exception to this is if the argument must later be passed into another function that takes an argument that specifies memory
storage.

Every byte of calldata costs gas with non-zero calldata costing 4 gas per byte and zero value calldata costing 16 gas per byte since EIP-2028. By packing calldata, you can reduce the zero value calldata, thus making it more efficient when calling a function. You will need to decode the calldata correctly inside of the function if you pack calldata.
contract Contract0 {
function notPackedCalldata(address exampleAddress, uint256 exampleUint256) public{
//do something
}
}
contract Contract1 {
function packedCalldata(bytes calldata data) public {
(address exampleAddress, uint256 exampleUint256) = abi.decode(data,(address, uint256));
//do something
}
}
Instead of reading a memory value every iteration during a for loop, cache the value before the loop and use the cached value. This also applies to checking if i
is < and array's length every loop.

A typical for loop definition may look like: for (uint256 i; i < arr.length; i++){}
. Instead of using array.length
, cache the array length before the loop, and use the cached value to safe gas. This will avoid an MLOAD
every loop for arrays stored in memory and an SLOAD
for arrays stored in storage. This can have significant gas savings for arrays with a large length, especially if the array is stored in storage.

When creating structs, make sure that the variables are listed in ascending order by data type. The compiler will pack the variables that can fit into one 32 byte slot. If the variables are not listed in ascending order, the compiler may not pack the data into one slot, causing additional sload
and sstore
instructions when reading/storing the struct into the contract's storage.

Mark storage variables as immutable
if they never change after initialization or constant
if they never change.
State variables can be declared as constant or immutable. In both cases, the variables cannot be modified after the contract has been constructed. For constant variables, the value has to be fixed at compile-time, while for immutable, it can still be assigned at construction time.
The compiler does not reserve a storage slot for these variables, and every occurrence is replaced by the respective value.
Compared to regular state variables, the gas costs of constant and immutable variables are much lower. For a constant variable, the expression assigned to it is copied to all the places where it is accessed and also re-evaluated each time. This allows for local optimizations. Immutable variables are evaluated once at construction time and their value is copied to all the places in the code where they are accessed. For these values, 32 bytes are reserved, even if they would fit in fewer bytes. Due to this, constant values can sometimes be cheaper than immutable values.

When updating a value in an array with arithmetic, using array[index] += amount
is cheaper than array[index] = array[index] + amount
. This is because you avoid an additonal mload
when the array is stored in memory, and an sload
when the array is stored in storage. This can be applied for any arithmetic operation including +=
, -=
,/=
,*=
,^=
,&=
, %=
, <<=
,>>=
, and >>>=
. This optimization can be particularly significant if the pattern occurs during a loop.

It is redundant to check if(x==true)
or any form of boolean comparison. You can slightly reduce gas consumption by using if (x)
instead. When applicable, you can also use assembly to save more gas by using iszeroiszero(x)
instead of if (x)
and iszero(x)
for if (!x)

Functions that are not payable have additional logic to check if there was a value sent with a call, however, making a function payable eliminates this check. This optimization should be carefully considered due to potentially unwanted behavior when a function does not need to accept ether.

Solidity >= 0.8.0 checks for overflow/underflow by default. Using Safemath when using version >= 0.8.0 is redundant and will incur additional gas costs. Instead of safemath, you can simply use Solidity's built in arithmetic. For further gas savings, you can also use assembly and check for overflow/underflow as seen below.
