## Issue Addressed Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2371 ## Proposed Changes Backport some changes from `tree-states` that remove duplicated calculations of the `proposer_index`. With this change the proposer index should be calculated only once for each block, and then plumbed through to every place it is required. ## Additional Info In future I hope to add more data to the consensus context that is cached on a per-epoch basis, like the effective balances of validators and the base rewards. There are some other changes to remove indexing in tests that were also useful for `tree-states` (the `tree-states` types don't implement `Index`).
