Developers at Anza are addressing ongoing congestion problems on the Solana network by implementing various strategies. These include enhancing validator clients, optimizing computing unit usage, introducing priority fees to improve user experiences, and developing stake-weighted quality of service to prioritize transactions more effectively. The root cause of the congestion is attributed to spam transactions, which significantly impact transaction speeds and increase drop rates. External analyses highlight the severity of Solana’s congestion challenges.
Despite these issues, it is noted that the network has overcome similar challenges in the past, indicating its stability in addressing setbacks.
