Repo for reproduction performance issue with Reth v0.1.0-alpha.4 JSON RPC

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run Reth node v0.1.0-alpha.4 for ETH Mainnet using docker-compose
2. Run Blockscout application:

git clone https://github.com/vbaranov/reth-perf-issue-reproduction
ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_HTTP_URL=... ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_WS_URL=... docker-compose up

where ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_HTTP_URL - node's JSON RPC endpoint, ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_WS_URL - node's WS endpoint

For instance, with the node running on the same host:

ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_HTTP_URL=http://localhost:8545 ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_WS_URL=ws://localhost:8545 docker-compose up

3. Keep it running for 1 - 2 hours. Blockscout will be working at http://localhost:4000 and load the node with various requests.

As a results the node will stop respond to any requests beside simple like eth_blockNUmber, web3_clientVersion, net_version.

At leasts, JSON RPC requests to these methods will hang:

• eth_getBlockByNumber
• eth_getTransactionReceipt
• eth_getTransactionByHash
• eth_getBalance
• trace_replayBlockTransactions
