If helpful, we (dYdX trading) would also be happy to talk through our use case(s) for VE. Both of the main ones we have in mind are not viable with the current performance facts.

Scope of this discussion
We'll continue here the conversation with the community regarding the performance impact of Vote Extensions (VE). The outcome of this discussion is to agree on concrete steps we'll take to alleviate the impact that VE have on performance.
Background
The full QA report for v0.38 can be found here. It includes an assessment of the perf. impact of VE. The concise conclusion of those measurements is that VE that exceed a certain size (16kb in our tests) can have significant impact on system latency and throughput.
