## `scaling_with_validators`

This benchmark evaluates the performance of constructing the chunks and the erasure root from PoV and
reconstructing the PoV from chunks. You can see the results of running this bench on 5950x below.
Interestingly, with `10_000` chunks (validators) its slower than with `50_000` for both construction
and reconstruction.
