I'd argue that bearer instruments (metals, coin/cash, bitcoin) have consolidation as a part of the natural cycle, especially for businesses. So I'd argue that it's fair to chalk it up to having a utxo system, but not to bloat.

Ok, I'll wait for more concrete results before sharing anything.  That Github issue is closed anyway so unlikely to get any real attention.

The block I gave as an example above contains mostly consolidation of p2sh utxo. So in this case, we're actually seeing bad performance on utxoset unbloat.

Interesting.  But we wouldn't need to do this much validation if the UTXO set wasn't so bloated to begin with, right? So I think it's fair to chalk it up to the sphere of problems caused by UTXO bloat?
