Conversation
…ot new storage Every data-storage write of CommitmentTree / BulkAppendTree (and so PrivateDocumentStore) was issued with no cost info, so the commit path charged key + value as added bytes: the compaction's chunk blob was billed as ~epoch_size x entry of NEW storage on the one append that compacts, although it supersedes the buffer entries it was built from (whose position keys the next epoch simply overwrites); buffer writes from the second epoch on were billed as new although they overwrite a stale slot; and the frontier was billed in full on every append although it is one value rewritten in place. Measured on Dash Platform's shielded notes: ~1,200 B metered per note against ~550 B that persist, with a ~630 KB spike on one arbitrary transaction per epoch (issue #822). Storage accounting v1, gated by the new bulk_append_tree_versions.cost.storage_accounting slot (0 on V1..V3, 1 on V4), charges each entry's permanent bytes once, as added, by the append that creates it (entry + varint + an amortized chunk-framing share), and reports the churn as replaced: the chunk blob as replacement of the pre-paid buffer bytes (the compacting append pays its own entry, which never enters the buffer, explicitly), the frontier rewrite as replacement of its previous serialization with only growth as added. MMR nodes are staged in an overlay and written at commit_mmr, so the blob's report travels with its staged position until then. The transactional context's direct put now adds the prefixed-key bytes for a new key exactly as the Merk batch path does (nothing outside Merk passed cost info before). The V4 CommitmentTreeInsert estimator and the PrivateDocumentStoreInsert arm follow: the epoch scale moves to a replaced-bytes term and the added term no longer scales with the epoch; the estimate-dominates property tests hold at every position including the compaction boundary. Stored bytes, chunks, roots and proofs are identical under both versions, which a test pins by comparing V3 and V4 roots after the same appends. Fixes #822 Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Report later buffer writes as replacements.
Line 62 charges every buffer value as added_bytes. After the first epoch, new_key is false, but this only suppresses the key charge. The dense-buffer value at that position is also overwritten. V4 therefore charges every later epoch as permanent added storage instead of replacement storage.

Add proof and batch-atomicity coverage.
The suite applies one append per batch and compares only root hashes. It does not generate and verify V3/V4 proofs. It does not test a multi-insert batch that fails after an earlier append and verify that no partial state persists.
Add these cases for the versioned accounting path. Based on PR objectives, stored bytes, chunks, roots, and proofs must remain identical.

Classify reused buffer-slot writes as replacements.
Lines 122-148 assert that second-epoch appends add their entry bytes. This conflicts with storage-accounting v1. A reused buffer key overwrites stale bytes, so its entry bytes must be reported in replaced_bytes, not added_bytes.
Keep the added-byte floor for first-epoch writes. For second-epoch non-compacting writes, assert an entry-sized replacement and exclude the entry from added bytes.

Superseded by #825, which implements the same #822 accounting more completely: slot rewrites from epoch 2 are sized against the committed value (so an epoch boundary inside one StorageBatch — where only the last put per key is charged — still bills each slot once), the commitment tree gets its own |
Fixes #822.
Problem
Every data-storage write of
CommitmentTree/BulkAppendTree(and soPrivateDocumentStore) was issued withcost_info: None, so the commit path charged key + value asadded_bytes— for writes that are physically replacement churn:epoch_size × entryof new storage on the one append that compacts, although it supersedes the buffer entries it was built from (whose 2-byte position keys the next epoch simply overwrites —DenseFixedSizedMerkleTree::reset()only zeroescountand the cache);__ct_data__) was billed in full on every append, although it is one value rewritten in place.Measured on Dash Platform's shielded notes (216-byte note, 1-action transfer, real applies): ~1,200 B metered per note against ~550 B that persist, with a 630,166 B spike (~17.3B credits) landing on one arbitrary transaction per epoch. Downstream that over-states shielded storage ~2× and is what made #813's (correct) upper bound unusable as an admission floor: worst position × worst accounting.
Change
Storage accounting v1, gated by a new
bulk_append_tree_versions.cost.storage_accountingslot (0 on V1–V3, 1 on V4 — the append-only family is V4-only and V4 has not activated, so no migration), charges each entry's permanent bytes once and reports churn as replaced:Plumbing:
DenseFixedSizedMerkleTree::try_insert{,_no_root}_with_cost_info;MmrStore::with_put_cost_infos(MMR nodes are staged in an overlay and written atcommit_mmr, so the blob's report travels with its staged position —BulkAppendTree::pending_blob_cost_infos);CommitmentTree::save(grove_version)tracks the stored frontier length; and the transactional context's directputnow adds the prefixed-key bytes for anew_nodeexactly as the Merk batch path (PrefixedMultiContextBatchPart::put) does — nothing outside Merk passed cost info before, so no double counting.The V4
CommitmentTreeInsertestimator (commitment_tree_insert_op_cost) and thePrivateDocumentStoreInsertarm follow: the epoch scale moves to a replaced-bytes term and the added term no longer scales with the epoch. Three estimator tests whose expectations encoded "blob as added" are updated accordingly (declared-chunk-power tightening now shows inreplaced_bytes; the oversized-payload saturation lands onreplaced_bytes; the PDS direct test's "2× entry" becomes 1× entry + epoch × entry replaced).Stored bytes, chunks, roots and proofs are identical under both versions — this is cost reporting only.
Tests
append_only_storage_accounting_tests: v1 compaction is replacement (replaced ≥ epoch × entry, added < replaced/4 and in the band of an ordinary append); every append adds at least its entry and second-epoch appends never exceed first-epoch ones; frontier rewrites report replaced; v0's legacy compaction spike pinned onGROVE_V3; V3/V4 roots identical after the same appends; v1 epoch total added within 1.5× of the permanent entry bytes while v0 double-counts. The existing estimate-dominates property tests (commitment_tree_cost_bound_tests) pass unchanged at every swept position including the compaction boundary atchunk_power 11. New version-pin test for the slot.Full workspace: all suites green (grovedb 2831 passed), clippy clean, verify-only build unaffected.
