Here is an updated graph of share of block reconstructions that didn’t need to request transactions - higher is better.
When the mempool grows (below shows everything above 3 sat/vByte), we usually need to request transactions for more block reconstructions. A few examples are:
- between 2024-11-08 and 2024-11-15
- between 2024-12-04 and 2024-12-17
