Gravity Reth is here 🌀
The fastest open-source EVM execution layer ever built. 41,000 TPS and 1.5 gigagas per second
Built by the team at @Galxe and engineered to meet the performance needs of today’s most demanding apps:
In EVM ecosystems, the execution client is a critical part of the stack, and often the bottleneck.
Modern clients like Reth have made progress, but weren’t designed for high-performance L1s and rollups aiming for sub-second finality and massive scale. Gravity Reth changes that.
Gravity Reth is a performance-engineered fork of Reth, re-architected for maximum throughput using reasonable hardware. Key innovations include:
- Grevm DAG-based hybrid parallel EVM
- 16-way Parallel Merklization
- Gravity Cache for fast state access
- Pipelined execution and optimized mempool
In ERC20 benchmarks, Gravity Reth sustains ~41,000 TPS and 2.96 gigagas per second on hybrid workloads.
Merklization, once a major bottleneck, is now 6× faster, from 380ms to 62ms at 100k accounts. On identical hardware, it’s 4× faster than Reth 1.4.8.
Gravity Reth is fully open source, with key improvements already upstreamed to Reth.
The first high-performance EVM execution layer builder can use, test, or build on today.
