Instructions for prioritization costs: Understanding the command
When you define prioritization costs on Solana, there is a significant consideration to keep in mind when determining the correct order for these two instructions. In this article, we will explore the guidelines to define and execute an instruction of prioritization costs.
Understand priority costs
Priority costs are a mechanism that allows users of the Solana network to define a priority level for their transactions. These costs are used to encourage validators on the network in order to validate the transactions in order of priority, by guaranteeing an equitable distribution of the processing capacity of transactions.
Instructions adjustment: SetcomputeUnitlimit and Setcomputeunitprice
To prioritize the costs received by validators based on Solana, we must determine the correct order to define these two instructions. The order is not explicitly defined by the official documentation or the directives of Solana Labs, but certain general principles can be applied.
Order considerations
The order of the two instructions does not matter when it comes to defining priority costs. However, it is essential to consider some factors:
- Order at the beginning : If you define
SetcomputeunitPrice, then Setcomputeunitlimit ‘, your transaction will be treated with the highest possible priority. Indeed,Setcomputeunitprice 'defines the price of the calculated unit (for example, Gas), which affects the cost of execution of the transaction, while" set accomplished "limits the number of calculations which can be carried out.
- Order at the end : Conversely, if you defineSetcomputeUnitlimit ‘first, then set accomplished, your transaction will receive a lower priority.
Conclusion
In summary, when defining the priority costs on Solana, it is essential to understand the order of execution for these two instructions: “set accompanying” and “set accompanying”. Although the order does not matter in terms of cost structure, it is crucial to consider the context in which the instructions are executed. By following these directives, validators can properly fix their priority costs and ensure fair distribution of the processing of transactions on the Solana network.
