Execution of the downtime slasher with a 8640 blocks block window, approximately 12 hours, requires ~20.8 million gas. With a gas limit of 20 million on the Baklava network, it is not currently possible to execute this function.
Downtime slashing is an important measure to ensure the stability of the Baklava network, as there are no incentives against abandoning elected validator nodes. At the time of writing there are 13 elected validators on the Baklava network which appear to be abandoned. If this number exceeds 1/3 of the elected set, currently 19, the network will stall
This proposal will call the function DowntimeSlasher.setSlashableDowntime(7200) to set the slashing window to 7200 blocks, approximately 10 hours, which will execute with approximately 17.3 million gas, within the gas limit.
After this proposal in enacted, downtime slashing can be used to slash offline validators, which will remove them from their groups and from the elected set if the owner does not take action.
[1] Offline validator nodes at the time of writing.
