Ethereum 1 dot X: a half-baked roadmap for mainnet improvements

A third possibility that I have not yet seen discussed is to start off by raising the gas limit and increasing the SSTORE cost (possibly greatly increasing it, eg. 4-5x; also NOT increasing refunds to mitigate gastoken), and then start architecting a precompile that manages a cheaper class of temporary storage that follows some rent scheme.

IMO any increases to SSTORE need to be done alongside corresponding increases to gas limits (e.g. 4x SSTORE increase => 4x gas limit increase) to avoid issues with some functions becoming uncallable due to gas limits and potentially locking funds etc…
