Anza devs aims to fix Solana congestion woes: ‘We analyzed the root cause’
The latest development comes in the wake of Solana network congestion incidents, marking the second such occurrence within a 48-hour span that has led to transaction delays and failures for Solana users
"The short version is: significant progress has been made to overcome the current congestion challenges, and we expect to begin releasing fixes next week," the Solana-focused software development firm confirmed. "In collaboration with other core contributors, we have analyzed the root cause, and evaluated several potential changes."
The latest development comes in the wake of Solana network congestion incidents, marking the second such occurrence within a 48-hour span that has led to transaction delays and failures for Solana users.
Anza, on Friday, April 5, blamed the cause of the congestion on a combination of QUIC implementation issues and the behavior of the Agave validator client.
Anza engineers, along with other core contributors, are making concerted efforts to diagnose and rectify these bottlenecks.
The latest measures are part of a series of improvements that are expected to unfold over the coming months to boost Solana's network efficiency.
The urgency of the issue was underscored by an alarming trend on April 4, when Solana experienced a failure rate of 75% for all non-vote transactions amid a surge in network activity, as per Dune Analytics. The spike was largely attributed to the growing interest in meme coins on the platform.
