Block construction efficiency quantifies how effectively a blockchain validator or miner assembles transactions into a new block. This metric considers the speed and resource usage involved in selecting, verifying, and packaging transactions. Higher efficiency contributes to faster transaction confirmation times and overall network throughput. It directly impacts the scalability and user experience of a decentralized ledger system.
Context
Debates around block construction efficiency are central to blockchain scalability solutions and network upgrades. News often covers improvements in algorithms or hardware designed to enhance this efficiency. Optimizing block construction is a continuous objective for protocols seeking to handle increasing transaction volumes and maintain network performance.
