Sharing a piece of useless knowledge: Robinhood might just need to tweak one parameter to significantly reduce on-chain gas fees. It’s called the gas target. This parameter doesn’t refer to the hard cap of block capacity—that’s the gas limit. Instead, it’s set by the official team to adjust the ideal usage for the base fee. When the actual load exceeds the ideal usage, a backlog (gas backlog) occurs. The larger the backlog, the higher the base fee, which makes the corresponding L2 execution fees more expensive. Yesterday, the average actual load on RH Chain was roughly 40 million gas/s. Although the official team hasn’t disclosed the gas target value, it’s certain that the gas target is set somewhat lower than 40 million gas/s, leading to severe backlogs and resulting in sky-high gas fees. Robinhood also hasn’t revealed the specific gas limit value. If we assume it follows Arbitrum Orbit’s default of 32 million gas/block: with RH Chain’s block production speed of 0.1s/block, its theoretical gas limit should be 320 million gas/s. TLDR: If the gas target parameter is adjusted to exceed the actual load on the chain, gas fees could be significantly reduced.
