Since we rolled out 4844, we’ve seen a 5x increase in demand on Base, driving fees back up

To reduce fees and scale, we’re increasing the gas target 50% (to 3.75 mgas/s) tomorrow and then to 5 mgas/s following an observation period, targeting early next week

increasing @base's gas target to 3.75 mgas/s tomorrow

we'll monitor, then increase to 5 mgas/s early next week

our north star is 1 Ggas/s and we'll keep increasing incrementally, while we make progress on increasing L1 DA, managing state growth, and scaling execution
