Mild succinctness refers to a characteristic of cryptographic proofs where the proof size is smaller than the computation it verifies, but does not achieve the extreme compactness of full succinctness. The proof size might grow linearly or polynomially with the computation size, albeit with a smaller constant factor. It offers practical efficiency gains without maximal compression.
Context
Mild succinctness finds application in proof systems where the overhead of achieving full succinctness is deemed too high for current technological capabilities. It presents a pragmatic balance between proof size and computational cost for generation. Debates often weigh the practical benefits of mild succinctness against the theoretical ideals of full succinctness in various scaling solutions.
