Egraphs have enabled recent advances in program optimization, synthesis, and verification, yet remain difficult to apply to effectful programs whose memory and I/O operations must respect execution order. Existing effect-aware extraction algorithms rely on integer linear programming (ILP) and dominate total runtime.

We introduce Statewalk DP, a new extraction algorithm that enforces effect ordering efficiently without external solvers. We prove that finding any effect-safe extraction is NP-complete, but show that Statewalk DP is tractable in statewalk width, a parameter that measures the complexity of dataflow interactions among effects. In practice, statewalk width generally remains small, enabling Statewalk DP to achieve order-of-magnitude speedups over ILP extraction while producing programs comparable to LLVM across our benchmarks. We implement the algorithm in eqcc, a prototype egraph-based compiler for imperative Bril programs and demonstrate that effect-aware extraction is no longer a bottleneck.
