Goerli TX DOS post-mortem First reported 8:40 CET by @jcksie & Jakub from Status on the ETH R&D discord and subsequently confirmed by Pari from EF devops CPU usage suddenly spiked at 1am CEST on all geth nodes on goerli. Both Disk writes and Reads increased significantly as well as Ingress and Egress for all geth nodes. Unfortunately the geth team does not have goerli nodes within our own grafana instance, so we had to rely on EF devops to look into the issue. EF devops does not support all of the very geth specific metrics, since they are based on influx not prometheus. I had a hunch that it was because of txpool churn. @ding_wanning and I worked on a PR to mitigate some DOS issues during the Protocol Fellowship: https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/pull/26648
