+Note that this plan does not require "non-uniform folding". The fact that there are many different primitive RISC-V 
+instructions is handled by "monolithic Jolt". Folding is merely applied to accumluate many copies of the same claim,

 # Space cost estimates
 
 If we shard the VM execution into chunks of $2^{20}$ RISC-V cycles each, then naively implemented we expect Jolt proving to require about 10 GBs of space. The bottleneck here is Spartan proving. The prover space cost for proving all the grand products in Jolt is less than that of Spartan proving, and the prover can compute the Spartan proof and more or less "wipe" memory before computing the grand product proofs.

 <LI> For at least the first round of Spartan's sum-check, we could store only $32$ bits per entry of $a, b, c$ rather than 256, which could save another factor of two in space cost. Also, prover <i>speed</i> optimizations for applying sum-check to small values described in Bagad-Domb-Thaler can also lead to additional space improvements for Spartan. At some point, the space cost of computing grand product proofs would dominate the space cost of Spartan proving and it won't be worthwhile to cut Spartan proving space further. </LI>
