Find what's quietly throttling your protocol.
Monad runs transactions in parallel. But when many touch the same storage, they collide and have to re-run one at a time. That hidden serialization caps your throughput. pev traces every block and shows you exactly where it happens, and how to fix it.
Here's pev on a live Monad contract
One storage slot is being written by many transactions at once, forcing them to run one at a time.
The slot, kind and method above are measured. What the slot holds is inferred from its access pattern, the 32-byte key is most likely a mapping or array entry, so it's a specific shared resource rather than a global variable. Confirming it needs the contract's source.
Each cell is a storage slot. Size and heat show how much contention it causes, the hot ones are where transactions queue up.
Write-write contention means two transactions wrote the same storage slot, so Monad had to run them one after another. Splitting that one slot into N independent shards lets unrelated writers stop colliding, contention on it drops roughly N-fold.
A starting point, the common remedy for the conflict pattern we measured, not a verified fix. Because the hot slot looks like a mapping or array entry, the right change depends on what it actually holds. Your team knows instantly; Silk Nodes can confirm the remedy and verify the contention drop on-chain.

A full contract performance audit
Every collision is work the chain did twice
Monad executes optimistically in parallel, then re-runs any transaction whose reads or writes conflicted with an earlier one. High contention means more re-execution: wasted compute, higher latency under load, and a lower effective throughput than the chain could deliver. Cutting contention is the single highest-leverage performance win for a busy contract, and almost nobody can see it today. pev can.
Audit your contract
We'll identify your biggest contention sources, the contracts colliding with you, the storage slots forcing re-execution, and the architecture changes with the highest ROI, all from Monad mainnet data. Built by Silk Nodes.
