‘Compute Units’ represent discrete amounts of processing power allocated for executing tasks on a blockchain or decentralized network. These units are typically measured and consumed during operations such as smart contract computations or data processing. Their allocation and cost are key economic factors.
Context
The efficiency and pricing of ‘Compute Units’ are significant considerations for the operational cost and scalability of many blockchain platforms. Discussions often revolve around optimizing gas fees and ensuring equitable access to computational resources for developers and users alike.
The protocol architecturally scales transaction throughput via increased Compute Unit limits and evaluates a shift to six-second block times, optimizing execution layer efficiency.
