Parallelize commitment validation using block access lists #17377
Description
Block-Level Access Lists provide post-state, so it's possible to do state root validation on multiple CPUs in parallel as well as concurrently with EVM execution validation. (Not helpful for block building performance since we don't have the BAL then yet, but should be a boon for block validation performance.)

BAL-driven parallel commitment (erigontech#21416)
awskii commentedon Oct 16, 2026
Done in #21416: BAL-driven commitment computes the root ahead of execution and checks it against the header (committer.go#L646); on by default, parallel trie default since #23831. Tip blocks don't compute ahead (committer.go#L659), tracked in #23091.
