> I'm proposing to remove {{size()}} because it is a prohibitively expensive
> operation and users might not be aware of it. Instead of {{size()}} users can
> use an iterator over all mappings to determine the size, when doing this they
> will be aware of the fact that it is a costly operation.
> Right now, {{size()}} is only costly on the RocksDB state backend but I think
> with future developments on the in-memory state backend it might also become
> an expensive operation there.
