Solana 加快了 Firedancer 的测试，这是备受期待的软件升级

自 2022 年以来，该升级一直在进行中，当时链条经常出现故障，此次升级被视为对 Solana 稳定性和速度的提升。

Solana is ramping up testing of Firedancer, a highly anticipated software upgrade promising to significantly increase the blockchain's processing speed.

Solana 正在加大 Firedancer 的测试力度，这是一项备受期待的软件升级，有望显着提高区块链的处理速度。

By the end of the week, Solana's core developers want a "super majority" of processing power on the chain's low-stakes test network to run through Frankendancer, an early version of Firedancer, according to messages in Solana's technical Discord server.

根据 Solana 技术 Discord 服务器中的消息，到本周末，Solana 的核心开发人员希望该链的低风险测试网络上的“绝大多数”处理能力能够通过 Firedancer（Firedancer 的早期版本）运行。

The call-to-action to Solana's validators – those who run computers that power the network – marks Firedancer's biggest test yet. The upgrade has been in the works since 2022, when the chain frequently faltered, and is seen as a boost to Solana's stability and speed.

对 Solana 验证者（运行为网络提供动力的计算机的验证者）的号召性用语标志着 Firedancer 迄今为止最大的测试。自 2022 年以来，该升级一直在进行中，当时链条经常出现故障，此次升级被视为对 Solana 稳定性和速度的提升。

Firedancer's proponents believe the software – developed by the crypto arm of trading giant Jump – will give Solana an unbeatable edge in crypto's race to woo global financial markets onto blockchains. They point to its theoretical speed: one million transactions per second, orders of magnitude faster than any blockchain-based system today.

Firedancer 的支持者相信，由交易巨头 Jump 的加密货币部门开发的软件将使 Solana 在加密货币竞赛中获得无与伦比的优势，以吸引全球金融市场进入区块链。他们指出其理论速度：每秒一百万笔交易，比当今任何基于区块链的系统快几个数量级。

Firedancer itself doesn't yet have a launch date. For now, Jump Crypto has only launched Frankendancer, which is a hybrid combining elements from Firedancer and Solana's predominant client architecture. Only a small subset of validators had adopted Frankendancer before this week; many told CoinDesk they found it buggy and prone to crashes.

Firedancer 本身还没有发布日期。目前，Jump Crypto 只推出了 Frankendancer，它是 Firedancer 和 Solana 主要客户端架构元素的混合体。本周之前，只有一小部分验证者采用了 Frankendancer；许多人告诉 CoinDesk，他们发现它有问题并且容易崩溃。

"It's been notoriously difficult to keep that thing alive and running but we've done it," said Kollen House, a longtime member of Solana's validator community. He sees the new push for broader Frankendancer adoption as a sign of the software's "maturity."

Solana 验证者社区的长期成员 Kollen House 表示：“众所周知，要让这个东西保持活力并运行是非常困难的，但我们已经做到了。”他认为弗兰肯舞者更广泛采用的新举措是该软件“成熟”的标志。

"If you have confidence to say, 'Hey we want 60% of testnet to run this client,' then we're getting there," House said.

House 表示：“如果你有信心说，‘嘿，我们希望 60% 的测试网来运行这个客户端’，那么我们就能实现这一目标。”

Crypto networks like Solana are powered by hundreds of individual validators. Each independently runs a computer loaded with "client" software that connects them to the network. Such decentralization helps blockchains stay secure, but it makes system upgrades much harder to coordinate.

像 Solana 这样的加密网络由数百个单独的验证器提供支持。每个人独立运行一台装有“客户端”软件的计算机，将它们连接到网络。这种去中心化有助于区块链保持安全，但也使得系统升级更加难以协调。

For years now, the Solana Foundation, a non-profit that stewards the network, has partially addressed that coordination dilemma via subsidies. Its "delegation program" helps smaller validators — those who don't have much staked SOL, and therefore earn less revenue for their work validating the chain — stay profitable. It frequently cajoles validators into keeping their software up-to-date by threatening to revoke the delegated stake of those who fall behind on upgrades.

多年来，管理该网络的非营利组织 Solana 基金会通过补贴部分解决了这种协调困境。它的“委托计划”帮助规模较小的验证者（那些没有太多质押 SOL 的验证者，因此在验证链上获得的收入较少）保持盈利。它经常威胁要撤销升级落后者的委托权益，诱使验证者保持软件最新。

For the first time on Tuesday, the Solana Foundation used that subsidy carrot-and-stick to directly promote the adoption of Frankendancer. Validators have only a few days left to switch their testnet systems to the new client before losing their delegated stake.

周二，索拉纳基金会首次使用胡萝卜加大棒的补贴来直接促进弗兰肯舞者的采用。验证者只剩下几天的时间将其测试网系统切换到新客户端，然后就会失去其委托权益。

"At present, it seems like they're getting there," said Jon, a validator operator who says he has been running Frankendancer for several months. "Around 30% of validators on testnet are running Frankendancer now, but still think they're short of the supermajority."

“目前看来他们正在实现这一目标，”验证者操作员 Jon 说，他说他已经运行 Frankendancer 几个月了。 “测试网上大约 30% 的验证者现在正在运行 Frankendancer，但仍然认为他们还没有达到绝对多数。”
