The Solana (SOL) blockchain might be getting past its worst congestion as Anza, one of its validator clients, has&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/anza_xyz/status/1778626752056803546" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">released</a> a major fix on the devnet. The Solana client validator said the proposed solution was released in version 1.18.11 and urged developers within the ecosystem to upgrade to start testing the fixes.
Solana, according to its executives, is a victim of&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/solana-dethrones-ethereum-sol-co-founder-breaks-silence" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">its success</a>. Built initially as a high-performance blockchain, the protocol did not anticipate the level of traffic it received over the past year, causing congestion and occasional&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/real-reason-behind-solanas-recent-outage-unveiled" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">network outages</a>. To resolve the challenge, cofounder Anatoly Yakovenko has teased how time will have to be considered in the quest for a lasting solution.
In the fix released by Anza, some of the key changes include: the staked vs. nonstaked packets sent down/throttled, BankingStage Forwarding Filter, default staked client in LocalCluster and the fixing of FailedVerification among others. These fixes as highlighted are not yet on the mainnet. When developers test out the features and give feedback, Anza engineers will now use these responses to perfect the solution before launching it on the mainnet.

Please upgrade ASAP to help us start analyzing the effects of the proposed congestion fixes. <a href="https://t.co/8tcmtZ5tuQ" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://t.co/8tcmtZ5tuQ</a>— Anza (@anza_xyz) <a href="https://twitter.com/anza_xyz/status/1778626752056803546?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">April 12, 2024</a>

It is worth noting that this is one of the major fixes the Solana protocol will be getting, signaling the potential end of the&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/solana-suffers-minor-service-outage-as-thousands-of-wallets-get-drained" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">outage menace</a> that has plagued it recently.
<h2 id="can-solana-learn-from-ethereum">Can Solana learn from Ethereum?</h2>
Ethereum is one of the most functional blockchains around, and it achieved this tag because of its constant updates to enhance its performance. Over the past year, Ethereum has launched the Shanghai Upgrade and the&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/15000-eth-moved-suddenly-as-ethereum-dencun-upgrade-activates" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Dencun Upgrade</a>, and it is looking at launching the Electra Upgrade for network security and stability.
All of these upgrades pass through different testing phases to bolster its resilience before being implemented publicly. For Solana to get a lasting solution to its challenge, such an approach needs to be taken to test out the fixes and guarantee they work as they are intended to.
