In practical terms, blocks get a shorter target production interval without receiving a larger compute allowance per second.The rollout is already further ahead elsewhere. Testnet is at an effective 200ms target, while Devnet is at 300ms and has activated its 250ms gate without making it effective yet. Solana’s Aug. 6 changelog had listed only the 350ms…
