Answers to Deep Questions about Solidity

The following list of questions was taken from https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/72reba/do_you_have_deep_questions_about_solidity_or_the/

An updated summary on the different ways one could have two contracts interact (DELEGATECALL, STATICCALL, libraries, all that stuff) with clear pros/cons for each (gas cost, whether it requires EVM assembly directives, etc)

Question by /u/drcode

I won't talk about low-level opcodes here because of the brevity of the answer. In general, there are four ways functions can be called in Solidity:

Installing V8 on a Mac

Prerequisites

Install Xcode (Avaliable on the Mac App Store)
Install Xcode Command Line Tools (Preferences > Downloads)
Install depot_tools
- $ git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git
- $ nano ~/.zshrc
- Add path=('/path/to/depot_tools' $path)

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs
