Description
The key server calls the dry run API to evaluate Seal policies. To prevent abuse, the server currently uses a fixed gas budget of 500M MIST, which is 1% of the maximum value, to limit the cost of these calls.
Since Seal policies should not incur storage fees anyhow, this PR reduces the gas budget to the cost of ~50,000 computation units to further limit potential abuse. The rationale is as follows:
Feedback on the proposed value is welcome.
