We're building Perpl to be the most gas-optimized CLOB. Monad uses priority gas auctions, and cheaper transactions have a higher chance of inclusion and (possibly) earlier in the block. Here is a practical example: - Market makers have to constantly update their orders on the book using non-matching (post, cancel) orders. - Cheaper post/cancel = more frequent updates = tighter spreads. That is the objective function! Poor CLOB designs would make market-making expensive, and those inefficiencies cannot be obfuscated on an L1, unlike on app-chains or beefy L2 sequencers.
