Solana plans mainnet block compute limit increase within 24 hours

Solana is set to raise its mainnet Block Compute Limit in less than 24 hours, according to a post by SolanaFloor on X. The planned change would increase the limit from 60,000,000 CU to 100,000,000 CU, a jump of about 66%. SolanaFloor said the upgrade tied to the change, SIMD-0286, is expected to go live at the start of Epoch 1009. The update points to a notable adjustment in Solana’s mainnet block capacity parameters, with the activation timeline now less than a day away based on the information shared in the post. No additional details were provided in the source material beyond the planned timing, the size of the increase, and the expected activation point for the upgrade.
