Accelerating Merkle Patricia Trie with GPU

Summary: GPU-parallel MPT acceleration addresses GPU-specific node-splitting and hash-computation conflicts with lock-free PhaseNU, lock-based LockNU, and PhaseHC. Integrated into Geth and LedgerDB, it substantially outperforms deployed MPT implementations across workloads. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
