In the validation:block_connected tracepoint, we call block->GetHash(), which ends up calling CBlockHeader::GetHash(), executing around 8000 serialization instructions. We don't need to do this extra work, because block->GetHash() is already called further up in the function. Let's save that value as a local variable and re-use it in our tracepoint so there is no unnecessary tracepoint overhead. Signed-off-by: William Casarin <[email protected]>
