Have you guys ever considered a threadpool to verify mempool verifications to decrease latency of tx's propogated across the network? Obviously the biggest hurdle is the DDOS vector from invalid signatures but do you think there is a way around that through some sort of rate-limiting approach or something more clever possibly to detect and manage stray/invalid signature verification requests?
With the multi-core CPUs and highly optimized secp256k1 it may allow us to scale throughput drastically if it were possible, just a thought!
