[G-01] Comparison operators In the EVM, there is no opcode for >= or <=. When using greater than or equal, two operations are performed: > and =. Using strict comparison operators hence saves gas.

Instances include: https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-06-illuminate/blob/912be2a90ded4a557f121fe565d12ec48d0c4684/lender/Lender.sol#L712

Mitigation: Replace <= with <, and >= with >. Do not forget to increment/decrement the compared variable. However, when 1 is negligible compared to the variable.

[G-02] Use nested multiple if instead of && operator If statements including conditions with the && operator can be broken down in multiple if statements to save gas.

[G-03] custom errors Custom errors from Solidity 0.8.4 are cheaper than revert strings (cheaper deployment cost and runtime cost when the revert condition is met) while providing the same amount of information, as explained here https://blog.soliditylang.org/2021/04/21/custom-errors/ Custom errors are defined using the error statement

Instances include: https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-06-illuminate/blob/912be2a90ded4a557f121fe565d12ec48d0c4684/lender/Lender.sol#L710 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-06-illuminate/blob/912be2a90ded4a557f121fe565d12ec48d0c4684/lender/Lender.sol#L712

Mitigation: Replace require statements with custom errors.

[G-04] Use 'address(0)' instead of '0x00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000' https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-06-illuminate/blob/912be2a90ded4a557f121fe565d12ec48d0c4684/lender/Lender.sol#L353

[G-05] ++i costs less gas than i++, especially when it's used in for loops https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-06-illuminate/blob/912be2a90ded4a557f121fe565d12ec48d0c4684/lender/Lender.sol#L96 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-06-illuminate/blob/912be2a90ded4a557f121fe565d12ec48d0c4684/lender/Lender.sol#L120 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-06-illuminate/blob/912be2a90ded4a557f121fe565d12ec48d0c4684/lender/Lender.sol#L289
