1988-2015: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winConsider accepting the resolved policy as a parameter to avoid a wasted VM execution.
apply_messagealways attemptsSenderValidation::Enforcefirst, then retries withSkip. Callers that already resolved the policy pay for the discarded first execution.
eth_estimate_gas_skip_senderis one such caller. It resolves the policy throughresolve_sender_validationbefore it runs, then its error arm at Line 1956 callsapply_message, which repeats theEnforceattempt and retries. That is two full VM executions on a request already known to needSkip.The PR objective includes benchmarking against Lotus. Adding a
sender_validation: SenderValidationparameter removes the redundant execution on the known-skip path while keeping the detect-and-retry fallback for callers that passEnforce.♻️ Proposed refactor

In `@src/rpc/methods/eth.rs`:
- Around line 1927-1934: Update resolve_sender_validation and
estimate_call_with_gas so sender validation uses the same tipset as execution:
either pass the execution tipset from data.mpool.current_tipset() into
resolve_sender_validation, or change execution to use the requested tipset.
Preserve the existing actor-based SenderValidation decisions once both paths
share the same state.
In `@src/tool/subcommands/api_cmd/api_compare_tests.rs`:
- Around line 1651-1669: Update the EthCall and EthEstimateGas cases in the
ApiPaths loop to use strict success assertions instead of
PolicyOnRejected::PassWithIdenticalError, and set msg calldata to a known
non-reverting contract method rather than relying on empty-calldata fallback
behavior. Keep the existing request construction and API-path coverage intact.
