As the original inventor of the modexp precompile I bow my head in shame 😢But modexp really does hold Ethereum back so much. Both because of inefficiency, and because its complexity has exposed our ecosystem to huge amounts of consensus failure risk.We could do heroic efforts to try to optimize (both raw execution and proving of) something that 0.01% of people use, but IMO it's unwise to, especially when there are much more urgent scaling needs and we have the rest of the protocol to harden. ...

Performance Bottleneck - Modexp is identified as a significant bottleneck in ZK-EVM prover efficiency, exhibiting performance up to 50x worse than average blocks [1] Proposed Solutions - Suggests replacing the modexp precompile with computationally equivalent EVM code, acknowledging a potential increase in gas costs [1] - Recommends that applications requiring modexp functionality (primarily for RSA encryption/signing) should encapsulate it within a SNARK [1] Industry Impact - Indicates that very few applications rely on modexp, limiting the widespread impact of addressing this inefficiency [1]
