There was a problem hiding this comment.
Maybe add the comment that effectively it means constraining by the gas limit?

We intend to raise the gas limit to 200m. If the EL provides a payload to the CL with more than 8,192 deposits, the CL will be unable to deserialize the payload and therefore unable to propose. This could potentially stall the network. This PR raises
MAX_DEPOSIT_REQUESTS_PER_PAYLOADfrom 8,192 to 1,048,576. With this change, the number of deposits per payload will be effectively limited by the gas limit. This number would support a gas limit of ~25 gigagas. Alternatively, we could merge #4630 which also fixes this issue by using aProgressiveListwithout any limit. I view this change as a temporary bandaid until we're ready to merge #4630.
