Solana has implemented SIMD-0207, increasing the block limit by 4%
ChainCatcher news, according to SolanaFloor, with the implementation of SIMD-0207, Solana engineers have increased the block size of the chain by 4%. This change allows more data to be packed into Solana blocks, theoretically enabling more transactions to be bundled into a single block, thereby enhancing the network's transaction throughput. SIMD-0207 was initially proposed by Anza engineer Andrew Fitzgerald and has now been successfully implemented on-chain, raising Solana's block limit to 50 million CUs, an increase of 4%.Increasing the network's block limit is just a small step on Solana's scalability roadmap. Future governance proposals and upgrades will focus on continuous, incremental improvements to help Solana grow. For example, SIMD-0256 aims to further increase the block limit to 60 million CUs, a 25% increase over the levels prior to the implementation of SIMD-0207.
