As a node evaluating a candidate delta, I want to score the delta based on my mempool content
In order to rank different candidate delta, as a node, I want to be able to
- produce a candidate delta from my own mempool
- use its hash to compare to the hashes of the candidates I receive
- if they are different, assess how much they differ (maybe using the MerkleTree) and attribute a score that decreases with increasing differences
very much related to #420
In the icebox for now, in the first implementation of POA, we simply rank the hashes by popularity, but are not able to use them to compare contents of the deltas.
Let's update this ticket to see how it compares to our paper
