**Reasons to Maintain Limitations on OP_RETURN in Bitcoin**

**1. Preserve Blockchain Pruning and Scalability**
* Bitcoin nodes need to process and store all transactions. If arbitrary data could be stored freely via OP_RETURN, it would bloat the UTXO set or blockchain size.
* Although OP_RETURN outputs are provably unspendable and don't enter the UTXO set, allowing large or unlimited data sizes could lead to excessive permanent data in the blockchain, making it harder for new nodes

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32469)
This PR makes the `WITH_DBUS` option available on all Unix-like systems, not just Linux, thereby fixing a regression that was overlooked during the migration from Autotools.

Note: Enabling D-Bus support on macOS still makes no sense, since the `Notificator` class uses the User Notification Center regardless:https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/746ab19d5a13c98ae7492f9b6fb7bd6a2103c65d/src/qt/notificator.cpp#L43-L56

Fixes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/32464.

This is the first I have heard about this caching of non-standard transactions. If this is indeed the case, then the small-block-propagation-performance-degradation argument is largely invalidated, but this requires that the cache be sufficiently la

Although the jury is still out, it might be related to what @sipa suggested: that the cache still hasn't warmed up enough and validation speed is temporarily slow. I'm testing different options like running with the pre-compiled bitcoind but every test takes quite a long time to come to a clear conclusion (days).

At least I got an answer to my questions of why my executables are so big. Closing for now, will reopen if this issue persists.

I don't see duplicating entries as a good option. Could lead to errors. I think is better to have two camps for each address entry, one for the amount (can be 0) and one for reminder (can be done with 0 or 1 or by setting "remainder" or an empty string)

> duplicating entries

How is it duplicating entries? In the example there is a different address for each entry.

First address is duplicated. Anyway it is duplicated in case you want to assign an amount to an address + remainder.

I think it would be nice if we could get some kind of locking warning here if a second `CCheckQueueControl` is created from the same `CCheckQueue`, instead of just deadlocking. Tried coming up with a combination of LOCK and UNLOCK_FUNCTION annotation, but could not find something that actually worked.

Approach NACK

I can understand the technical reasons for lifting the `OP_RETURN` but I oppose the removal of node configurability. Both `-datacarrier` and `-datacarriersize` should be retained. Node operators should be able to choose what kind of data they relay without having to rely on other Node implementations that have less developper support.

Additionally, I object to allowing multiple `OP_RETURN` outputs per transaction. This may increase mempool complexity, raise attack surface, an

Concept NACK We should create more (and possibly easier) avenues that help node operators express their will. This PR is moving us in the opposite direction.
