Vitalik Buterin Urges Increasing Gas Limit to Enhance Throughput: Reddit AMA
Since its launch in 2015, Ethereum has seen a continuous increase in the average gas limit, reaching approximately 3 million. With the implementation of the London hard fork and the introduction of EIP-1559 in August 2021, there has been a significant improvement, and the current gas limit is around 30 million. Vitalik hopes to adjust it to around 40 million, representing an increase of approximately 33%.
