// A new ApiRef instance needs to be used per execution to avoid the overlayed state to affect
// the estimation result of subsequent calls.
//
// Note that this would have a performance penalty if we introduce gas estimation for past
// blocks - and thus, past runtime versions. Substrate has a default `runtime_cache_size` of
// 2 slots LRU-style, meaning if users were to access multiple runtime versions in a short period
// of time, the RPC response time would degrade a lot, as the VersionedRuntime needs to be compiled.
//
// To solve that, and if we introduce historical gas estimation, we'd need to increase that default.
